Of course, Korliss
Rollins is how people in Collinsville might know me, but after marriage
I became Karen Cooper and have adopted my grandmother's maiden name as
part of my pen name. My book, Spirited Encounters, about American Indian protests of museums, has just been released by Alta Mira Press. Also, I have just retired from the National Museum of the American Indian and moved to Tahlequah. Maybe you can announce this on your news web site. Thanks, and Happy New Year! -- Karen Coody Cooper 605 W Shawnee St Tahlequah OK 74464 918 207-0093 cooper46@sbcglobal.net |
