We stumbled on this recently. It’s an excerpt of one of Monk Rowe’s excellent interviews. (If you don’t know them, look them up. They’re superb!)

If you know Sheila I think you’ll like this – a lot. If not, this is a good introduction to her life and work.

She makes a reference to having Native American ancestry. She was Cherokee on her mother’s side.
