Read my profile in the Resident Community News

I sat down with Karen Rieley of the Resident Community News for a conversation about disability, family, and education. We talked about the importance of mentors and the value of passing along we learn. Read the full story here.

  1. Emily:

    I liked the article very much. While reading through it, I envisioned a novel or nonfiction book coming out of it. I haven’t read it in 60+ years, but I was reminded of THE EGG AND I by Betty MacDonald. (This true-life novel produced the characters Ma & Pa Kettle, and they went on to become major characters in ten films.) Besides MacDonald’s work, other possibilities include books by Fannie Flagg, Bailey White, and Jean Shepherd.

    Yours in the word,

  2. Thanks, Howard! I also liked this piece very much since it offered a holistic view of me as a person. 🙂

    Book of essays, definitely. That is my next major project.
