Building on her successful career as a skilled interviewer and science writer who founded The Story Laboratory, LLC, Anne creates books and web sites with people in hospice while they experience a focused and generous clarity about their lives. She also mentors and coaches youth writing projects. Her favorite is the Aerobic Newspaper, a format she invented in 2006 and continues to publishes with children in Cook County. |
