"A desire to bring back memories of a Caribbean sailing
trip sparked my interest in photography a number of
years ago. I enlarged and displayed images that I
liked, and attended a variety of photography workshops
in Yosemite, the White Mountains, Sequoia National Park
 and Pt. Reyes. These experiences inspired me to learn
about the camera and see what was special about nature,
 and "ordinary things. Workshops at the Center for Documentary
Studies at Duke University taught me about photography as a
medium of communication that is exciting to children, which I have
integrated into my work as an educational therapist. Currently my
work is at the Art Stand in Sanger, Arts Visalia, the Wooden Indian
Gallery, and at Kaweah Delta Hospital," says Jeri.  To learn more
