In 1972, I started working full time, first, as the Continuity Director and, then, Promotions Director at KHOW Radio in Denver, CO. After coming up against discrimination, as one of only two women in the class, I quit after eighteen months, because men kept telling me that no college would hire a woman philosophy professor. I continued my philosophy studies in a University Masters Program. Instead, I majored in Philosophy and graduated in 1969 with Honors. In college, I wanted to take art classes but my father wouldn’t pay for those classes, because my degree wouldn’t guarantee success. I couldn’t handle my feelings of her altering my intention. I loved it until the instructor drew on my drawing “to make it better”. I was signed up for an after school art class. I have known that I wanted to be an artist since the sixth grade when I was recognized as a “gifted child artist”.

When did you first know you wanted to pursue a creative/artistic path professionally?ĭeciding to pursue a creative professional path, sort of creeps up on one.
