Notă biografică

I grew up, the third of five children, in an old houseboat on Ash Creek in Bridgeport, Connecticut. At age seventeen I learned I had a serious eye condition and two years later I woke up one morning without my sight. It was after this loss that I encountered so many inspiring people who would change my life completely, beginning with my husband, Kenneth Ingham, also newly blinded, who I met at The Carroll Center for the Blind in Newton, Massachusetts. I received a B.A. in French Literature from the just budding University of Bridgeport on Long Island Sound, where classes were held in charming old mansions. With the help and encouragement of my remarkable French professor, Dr. John Rassias, I won a Fulbright Scholarship to study at the Sorbonne in Paris. Dr. Rassias went on to an extraordinary career at Dartmouth, where he is renowned for his dynamic language-teaching techniques and his work as head of the Peace Corps for the Francophone countries in Africa. My husband obtained a Ph.D. in Physics from Brandeis University and became an entrepreneur, while I 'went on' to the challenge and delight of bringing up three children and writing lots of poetry. Including this collection, I have seven published books (see note after preface for titles) and three more awaiting publication. Over the years, I have had the honor of reciting at various wonderful venues in Massachusetts, such as Tapestry of Voices (Annual April Poetry Festival at the B.P.L), Stone Soup, Ibbetson Street, Walden Pond, Chapter and Verse, Main Street Cafés(c), and Newton and Brockton Library Series. In addition, since 1992 I have participated in poetry programs at Norfolk and Bay State Prisons.
