Congratulations To Our Artist Of The Week
Irmgarde Brown
About the Artist:
From the Artists’ website Author – Irmgarde Brown
From age nine, I dwelled in the land of books at the Indianapolis Public Library. I yearned for the words to melt into my body as I held myself up against the shelves. My father died that year (aged 72) which is probably another reason why I found refuge in books. My mother was a young widow at 48, nearly 25 years younger than her husband. And yet, the whole time, she was the family breadwinner. She was the one who insisted my family emigrate from Latvia via Germany to the United States after the war. She was also the one who insisted that all things were possible. Among them, she wanted me to be a writer.
Rarely does a life go the way our parents want. Instead, I leaned into the world of theater as an actress and later as a playwright and finally, a director. I have no regrets. Well, except that I never became rich and famous. But my studies and experiences gave me a confidence that I would have found more difficult to acquire in other fields. Interestingly enough, it is in New York City where I encountered the Christ and made a commitment to follow. This transformation came directly from the Book. As I said earlier, words and books speak to me deeply. Read more at Author – Irmgarde Brown
