The Little Gallery That Could (And Did)

As well as being fortunate enough to write and illustrate children's books, I'm privileged to work for my friend Anne's art gallery. She started this tiny gallery called FOG on the outer edge of San Francisco in 2015.

A few months ago Anne applied to be in Art Market San Francisco, and she got in! FOG will be exhibiting among other galleries from around the world: London, Vancouver, New York, Tokyo, Paris, Seoul– as well as other big Bay Area galleries. Visit us at booth #523, near the café!

Most Popular Patient

Lucille, my 94-year-old pal who walks to the Y every morning, and then walks three miles after lunch, GOT HIT BY A CAR last week. That's Lucille's daughter Lauren on the far right.

Kaiser

I switched From Blue Shield to Kaiser Permanente in January. (Why did I not do this ten years ago? Kaiser is so organized and so responsive. And the cost is less.)

Today I had to get a hearing test because it turns out I'm not as good a listener as I thought I was. Look what was right outside my doc's office!

A Fun Reading Experience

 

What a project: A few years ago John Banville decided to pick up where Henry James left off (in 1880), and to continue the adventures of Isabel Osmond for us. I loved both books.

A wonderful opening at FOG (paintings and sculpture by Connie Harris)...

And then to Sausalito to see Meg Fleming read and sign her new book Ready, Set, Sail. This tiny branch of Book Passage is right on the harbor, and Meg's book made a big splash. An amazing presentation.
