“Time is all we’re given in this life, the hours and what we do with them.  It sounds simple, but it’s true, and it makes you realize that you have to pick the areas in your life that cause time to stop, that make you feel the fullness of the moment.  Art can do that.”

Film director Richard Linklater, from an interview in the Chicago Tribune, July 14, 2014


This photo looks down my street towards my hometown library on a foggy night.  I'm lucky every once in a while to capture a moment in a photograph that I don't know how to express in words.  Except for my home page, most of the photographs on my website are ones I've taken.  Books, photographs, music, drawings, paintings, sculptures, dancing...what would we do without art?

    I am a children’s writer and youth librarian who’s passionate about literature, libraries, and art.

    The path before me unwinds in ways that surprise, delight, and befuddle.  I hope you’ll join me to see where it leads.
