My Former Life: Child Star

Some of you know that before retiring to write fiction full time, I worked for over forty years as a developmental psychologist at the HighScope Foundation, an early education nonprofit in Ypsilanti, Michigan, where I was the Senior Director of Curriculum Development. HighScope recently celebrated its 50th anniversary and Detroit Public Television produced two short documentaries to honor its work. I was interviewed as part of that process and appear in both videos. The first is a 5-minute HighScope Overview Video about the Foundation’s educational philosophy and practices, and the second is a 3-minute HighScope Historical Video about its origins and ongoing international impact. Watch and learn. Just as a good manuscript editor helps bring voices and images to life on the page, a skilled documentary videographer enlivens talking heads and photos on the screen. Kudos and thanks to Matthew Winne.
