1919 - A Kansas Tale Part II: An American Tale: Volume 1

Dorothy Dierks Hourihan was born in Georgia. Educated at the University of Colorado (BFA) and Columbia University (MA and Doctorate of Education), she retired from a post as Dean of Arts and Science from New Jersey City University. Her career as a professor of fine arts, as well as a painter in her own right - a solo exhibition (her eighth) recently occurred in New York City - infuses her book with a knowledge of painting, and drawing from an artist's perspective. When not pursuing her twin interests in writing and painting, the author, who lives in Naples, Florida, enjoys playing golf and travelling.
