“(I) very much like Pichio's (Picasso’s) collage work more than his other work. Miro is a long time favorite. I used to take my daughter to the art museum when she was young and each time she got to pick a postcard to take home. She always went for a Magritte or a Chagall.  Both of those artists hold a grand place in my heart not just for their works but because they were able to translate art to a child so young.  We started going a couple times a year when she was three and she still keeps her post cards.  I took her to a big Chagall exhibit in Chicago when she was about 10 and she really thought she was the stuff….”  - Janiece Senn on 05.16.009

Authors Bio:
"How could I fail to speak with difficulty? I have new things to say."

I graduated from Stanford Law School in 1966 but have never practiced. Instead, I dropped back five years and joined The Movement, but it wasn't until the 1970's that I began writing serious prose. By 1978, I was too old to live on the streets and sweat out going to jail, so I got a serious job as a GS-4, clerk-typist with the US Forest Service. I retired 23 years later, as head of the regionwide Claims Program in the California Region, headquartered in San Francisco for 20 years and then moved to Mare Island, in Vallejo. (That early school training always catches up with us, sooner or later.)

I still live in the greater Vallejo area, and I still have radical politics. Last year my major project was contributing to the ending of the Iraq war, with a minor in ending the embargo of Cuba. This year, I'm a little confused, but what the hey, who's not?
