the Watch</b>” presentation, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. It’s
such a unique program based on the history of female lighthouse keepers of the
Great Lakes, but it blends in theatrical and musical elements. I received
numerous post-presentation comments from patrons still gushing over her
performance a week after we had her.</span></p>

me was the first time I’d been asked to sign one, but after reading it I felt it was fair. There’s some added legitimacy to the performance as
well, because it was officially commissioned by the Lorenzo Cultural Center in
Macomb, MI.</span></p>
