(American, b. Lexington, Ky., 1950)
She studied at the University of Kentucky, the University of California and Mills College. Her teachers included John Cage and her early works show Cage's influence. However, her later works are more tonal. She has taught at the New School for Social Research in a series about women composers, as well as the College of New Rochelle. She accompanied for Martha Graham dance classes, among others. Several years ago she began work on a series of compositions she calls “swales,” and has written swales for many different combinations of instruments.
