Meri Henriques Vahl

After leaving Indiana University, Meri Henriques Vahl arrived at the University of California, Berkeley, just in time to witness the Free Speech Movement. Since earning her BA in Fine Art at Berkeley, she has worked as a graphic artist and musician, performed in several Gilbert & Sullivan operettas with the San Francisco Lamplighters, and is currently an award-winning art quilter who teaches at various venues in the USA and overseas. Vahl has two adult children and lives in central California with her husband and two rowdy felines. She also writes science fiction, and hopes to publish those stories in the near future (rather than the sci-fi future!)
