She worked in molecular genetics research at the University of Illinois at Chicago and taught a wide range of courses in the biology department at Lake Forest College. Her research on DNA cloning in Saccharomyces and Drosophila was published in scientific journals.
Working with healthcare professionals, Margaret healed from multiple sclerosis in 1995, transforming her life. She began a poetic journal to "sing from the heart." She continued to study healing and began to use creative arts (poetry, music, photography, and story-telling) to help others. With this in mind, she designed a unique line of greeting cards, “Life Support Cards” (TM) combining her inspiring photography and poetry. She created and taught a series of workshops encouraging others to write, opening them to creative approaches to solving life problems.
In 1996, Margaret was diagnosed with breast cancer. She refers to this time as her graduate course in healing. Writing her poetic journal was crucial to her healing process. Her first book, "As Easy as Breathing," contains selections from five years of writing: poems from her poetic journal, letters she wrote to her healing circle of family and friends, and her powerful conversations with Spirit.
In 2007, Margaret recorded her first CD, "Full Blooming: Selections from a Poetic Journal" using poems chosen from "As Easy as Breathing" and her next book, "Letting Go and New Beginnings: A Mother's Poetic Journey" (coming in 2010). She also sang three original songs in her rich alto voice. This life-affirming CD is available at CDBaby.com and on iTunes.
Margaret is a visionary poet, singer, photographer, healer, and story-teller. Her poetry has been published in journals and anthologies, and her photographs have been shown in galleries in Chicago and Lake Forest. Her poem, "I Am Willing" continues to be picked up by blogs all over the world as a spiritual meditation and life reflection. She met her husband in an English class at the University of Michigan in 1972. They have been married 37 years, with two grown children. For more info visit www.FullBlooming.com.показать меньше
