Today's Featured Biography

 
Ruth Rocap

After NP I attended Grove City College for two years. My family moved to Des Moines – right down THE rabbit hole! – the summer after freshman year. I transferred to Iowa State and then to Drake where I earned a BA in Political Science, a paean to the sixties. I returned to ISU for masters courses but detoured to Ann Arbor for a library degree. A student job at UM’s b-school translated into a professional one as head of the Business School library at the University of Iowa. Very quickly the lure of the big city was too tantalizing. I relocated to Chicago living a block from the lake and taking advantage of all that lively city offers. I joined corporate America working for Borg-Warner as a records manager and eventually switched to communications. Having spent one endless winter too many – the last in two coats – I discovered the joys of the South. I moved to Atlanta and trained telecom customers for IBM. I finally returned to libraries as a software trainer for a large library consortia in the southeast. Having grown weary of the constant travel and Atlanta’s infamous traffic, I relocated to Greenville, SC where I worked at the county library. I was then enticed to a library system and a much more quiet life in LaGrange, GA. (LaGrange is a historic town on a huge lake about an hour from the Atlanta airport. I have deer in the yard…) I still put in a 40-hour week and long to retire as soon as my dream house is paid for. Along the way I forgot to have children, collected a coterie of cats, one crazy Czech and a boatload of books. (No Kindle for this kid, thank you, but then my phone’s not smart either…) In these sixties I most treasure a thick address book (Marilyn Wheeler is a tireless correspondent) and the internet where I found Louise Steinmark by way of Dee Bellegia. Happily others connected and reconnected. I’m very excited about the prospect of discovering how everyone ‘turned out’. Thanks, Committee!
