Acerca da Minha Biblioteca

These are books I've collected throughout my life, including a collection of books that belonged to my father, my mother, and my maternal grandmother, plus a few other family members. I'm an artist, a writer, and researcher. For the past 25 years I've mostly focused on researching the history of my family in the Deep South, on Southern history, and on the history of African Americans in the 19th-century South. And I've also studied or been intensely interested in Irish history, art (especially Early Christian and Medieval), architecture; the art, history and culture of pilgrimage; Southern Pentecostalism and related culture; feminism, lesbian and women's culture in America, oracles, Western European mythology, archetypes; New Age and neo-pagan ideas; fairies and fairy tales; art-making including quilting, embroidery, dolls and puppets. Also books about 18th- and 19th-century naturalists; and about writing of all kinds, books of poetry, and essays. A few special fiction books (especially cozy mysteries), but not many. I've catalogued fewer than one-third of them. I keep whittling away.

Acerca de Mim

In my work life, I'm a visual resources curator-turned communications specialist for an academic art department. I'm also the assistant editor for Muscogiana, the journal of the Muscogee Genealogical Society (based in Columbus, Georgia). I have degrees in studio art, art history, and library and information studies. When not at work, I research and write about southern history, especially the history of my ancestors, and embroider, quilt, and paint.
