Congratulations to Catherine Quillman, who was chosen as the graduation speaker at the Delaware College of Art & Design in Wilmington on May 6. She said she was excited to be selected but a little abashed that the college's press release described her as "the" artist and writer, "as if I am nationally known!" Her speech will explore the difficulties artists have in carving out creative time for themselves. The May 6 commencement ceremonies will follow a bagpiper-led procession along Market Street from the college to the Grand Opera House.
Cathy, who lives in West Chester, has written several books about local history and artists, including "Walking the East End: A Historic African-American Community in West Chester" and "Artists of the Brandywine Valley."
