I moved to Paducah in 1970 with my husband. I am a retired teacher. I retired in 2008 and in 2009 I started taking photography classes at the Paducah School of Art and Design to the present. Photography became a passion for me. My husband and I have traveled all over the world where I have taken thousands of photographs including many of the National Parks in the United States. Of course, I have taken photographs of Paducah and the west Kentucky area. I have attended numerous photography workshops all over the United States. I work out of my home.
