"I am originally from
Michigan, Motown to be exact. I quit school after
every degree--or maybe I just graduated and stopped going to school...I
don't know but I always went back. MFA at
Indiana, PhD at Cincinnatti (stay away from the
3-way chili). Hobbies? Hiking, biking, gardening, cooking. Art is not a
hobby: it's a necessary part of my intellectual life."
