Biography

I am a trained forensic artist, capable of building a clay bust from a skull, and can do cadaver drawings and fugitive updates. I am also Editor of the Arkansas Identification News, a quarterly that goes out to forensic scientists and law enforcement whom all belong to the professional organization, International Association for Identification. And I am a Diplomate and Fellow with the American College of Forensic Examiners International. In another vein, I raised a capuchin monkey for Helping Hands. "Ziggy" Campbell is now a helper-companion for a quadriplegic. I wrote a memoir about our experience (13 years) called Bringing Up Ziggy. I am now owner and Director for a new publishing company, Primate Press, LLC, and our first title: Love Monkey, is what I'm posting on this site.

Inspiration

I am a workaholic and self-disciplined and seem to find unusual experiences and life-changes to fire my passion. For example, we were area reps for a student foreign exchange and placed 36 students from 22 different countries through three small communities in six years. We also had a daughter, Jopie, from Holland, and another daughter, Ana, from Canary Islands, Spain. Learned a lot about different cultures and peoples.
