Biography
Having grown up here, I left Harrison High School for what is now the University of Northern Colorado and returned to teach 16 years in El Paso County School District #11. After early retirement, I foresook the planned Ph. D. in dramatic literature to co-coordinate the Spirit of Palmer Festival in 1986, to work for the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum and later the Pikes Peak Library District. Again retired but working actively and travelling as much as I can, I hope to continue writing soon.
