About me

Gender Female
Occupation Working MLS Student
Location Chicago, Illinois
Introduction Unconventional? Maybe! I am a 50 yr old student pursuing an MLS. My resume includes being a professional clown and owning a childrens' program planning and entertainment business for 13 years. Currently I run an office for a book jobber and moonlight in Online Information Services at a large public library. I am not an English teacher, an historian, or a critic of fine art. I simply have a desire to see young and old get excited by the prospect of finding information. I respect the importance of searching for practical information as much as I admire the pursuit of scientific evidence or fine literature. I believe in continuing education for all in an environment that is welcoming and comfortable -- and high tech!
Interests Storytelling, Herbal Folklore, Gardening, Writing To Recapture Moments, Keeping Up on Technology

If mud is dirt plus water, what is clay?

Wonderfully fine stone dust ground up from multicolored minerals in the earth.
