Her father opposed the idea of sending girls to college, being of the opinion that they would be better off working as waitresses to prepare them for their life’s work as housewives. Nancy ignored his advice and went on to UC Berkeley, where she supported herself by working in the campus library. In addition to the pleasure of working around books, the job had an added benefit of allowing student clerks to disappear into the stacks and read when work was slow. Nancy majored in English literature and graduated from Berkeley with honors.</span></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="jftr" data-offset-key="bggh5-0-0"><div data-offset-key="bggh5-0-0"><span data-offset-key="bggh5-0-0"><br data-text="true"></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="jftr" data-offset-key="78lnp-0-0"><div data-offset-key="78lnp-0-0"><span data-offset-key="78lnp-0-0"><span data-text="true">Her first job was as an associate editor for a small, long-vanished publishing house in San Francisco.

She quit ARCO when the first of her two granddaughters was born. Since then, she has devoted herself to writing and editing. Her primary hobby is painting portraits and images from old family photos dating from the early 1900s. She loves reading fiction, the theater, films, and travel, especially to the UK where the theater and books are a national passion.</span></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="jftr" data-offset-key="en4ov-0-0"><div data-offset-key="en4ov-0-0"><span data-offset-key="en4ov-0-0"><br data-text="true"></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="jftr" data-offset-key="46a61-0-0"><div data-offset-key="46a61-0-0"><span data-offset-key="46a61-0-0"><span data-text="true">Nancy Boyarsky coauthored Backroom Politics, a New York Times notable book, with her husband.

Drumming for Healing at Prairiewoods
<p class="MsoNormal">In the cosmic experience, drumming touches us at a deep level and brings all creation together as a community. Especially now, when our external and internal worlds can be so polarized, communication that bears witness to creative love is very important. Drumming—and feeling the Creator’s rhythm inside of us—resonates with a variety of people. All racial, economic, denominational and other differences can disappear when a group of people share rhythm. Join facilitator Sheri Mealhouse (Hawkwoman) at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) on the second and fourth Monday of each month for a healing drum circle. As we prayerfully listen to other drummers in order to make music, the whole group becomes one! No experience is necessary. Bring your own drum or use one of ours. <em>Due to COVID-19, this group will meet outside near the pond deck South of the Center. Please wear a mask and respect social distancing.</em> A free-will offering to the facilitator is accepted at the door. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2017-08-19 19:00:00 -0500
