She didn’t know what the right place was, so she traveled across country by train, and wondered to herself if, in fact, there was a right place. Upon returning to the Bay Area, she transferred to College of Marin, a community college with a stellar art program and teachers who knew what teaching was all about. She reluctantly transferred to San Francisco State University, where it was rumored a degree could be had, and received her BA in sculpture in ‘83. For the next 10 years, she worked as a goldsmith, apprenticing to a worshipful Englishman named Gwilym. There she honed her technical skills and gain a wide variety of abilities, including how to brew a proper cup of tea. Eventually, however, the small and precious nature of the materials began to feel limiting, and she returned to sculpture, working in bronze, found objects, and recycled paper pulp. While living with her husband in Colombia in the early 90s, she began writing--and discovered the addictive and torturous delights therein. She has since published on a wide variety of topics for The Washington Post, the Philadelphia Inquirer and Cleaver Magazine. She also still writes fiction. Most recently, Russell has been seduced by the traditional darkroom methods of photography--most specifically, pinhole photography. She indulges in this pursuit perhaps more than is good for her. Russell currently lives in Arlington, Virginia, where she continues her writing and artwork, living quite happily with her husband Adolfo, three sons, and two loopy dogs.view less
