Pioneering Contemporary Naturalist Sculpture in Alabaster by Susan Zalkind and Paul Hawkins |
| |
I grew up in Fall River, Massachusetts - at the mouth of Cape Cod – dreamy summers, vibrant falls, white winters, luxurious springs. I was an athlete, loved the water, belonged to a wonderful Jewish community and enjoyed a life filled with friends, educaton and sports. My childhood was so great that it took me awhile to find my own rudder after leaving my parent’s home. Having received a BA from Boston University and an M.Ed. From Northeasten University, my spirit was lured to the North San Diego County coast on the wave of ‘California Dreamin’ in the early 70's. |
