People inspiring Sheila:
My kid, Sydney (26) always inspires me. They are fearless. and adventurous, and talented and kind. Sydney is my light.
Since I’m a theatre junkie, Stephen Sondheim, who passed away in ’21, and wrote so many amazing musicals (Company, Into the Woods, Sunday in the Park with George, Sweeney Todd…) I look up to him and his incredible talent. His music always uplifts me.
Most recently I have been taking a Memoir writing class with Alison Wearing and she simply “speaks to me.” What a wonderful writing guide she is, and I continue to explore memoir writing, with her guidance.
