I received a doctorate in philosophy in 1972 from Boston University and taught for one year at an experimental college from which I was fired for being "too experimental." I then became a student of astrology, working and writing in that field for over two decades. Along the way I founded and published three experimental magazines, one of which, "Crone Chronicles: A Journal of Conscious Aging" (1989-2001), was twice nominated for "Utne Reader"'s annual awards.
At Spring Equinox, 2008, Anne Niven of "SageWoman Magazine" and I will launch a new magazine, "Crone: Women Coming of Age." My book, "This Vast Being: A Voyage through Grief and Exaltation," which tells of the multidimensional experiences of my first year of "conscious grieving" after my husband died of a heart attack, was released in March, 2007.
I lived for 20 years in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, most of that time in a 20-foot diameter yurt surrounded by wild animals. My forays into art started there, when I knew I needed to enter "beginner's mind," and art was the most scary place that I could go.
I moved to Bloomington in August of 2002, four months before my husband died and left me alone and bereft in a new, and, I discovered, sweetly nourishing town. I live in "Green Acres" and am working with others to transform our neighborhood into a sustainable urban village.
