SCW: SANTA CRUZ WOMAN | WINTER 2015 3
In this second quarterly issue of Santa Cruz Woman
our local writers bring to you the stories of six inspired
women of Santa Cruz County who have changed the
way we look at things.
Through them we see ourselves on the big screen,
realize the adventure of science, feast from the
generosity of youth, create original theater and poetry,
engage in the political process and remember the joy of
service. No wonder we love living here!
Enjoy their stories and please send us your suggestions
for the next issue at SCW@santacruzsentinel.com.
Happy Holidays!
