Bronwyn has been haunting libraries since her first grade class trip to the Litchfield Library. She has enjoyed being a part of many worlds; educational film, theatre, costume design, restaurants and catering, school data base systems, and oncology medical massage. When she is not reading, she is listening to books on CD or researching solutions to technology questions, writing, sewing, or, watching the stars.

Not a thing I don’t like to read — except canned food labels — they are just scary!
