more than half her life.

She was raised in a family

that loved books, the arts

and laughter. She earned

veloped a love for theater,

museums, art galleries

and opera. In 1995, Nelida

English, attended school and started a new career.

Nelida enjoys being a wife and mother and work-

ing as an oncology nurse adviser. She credits her

patients for teaching her to make each day mean-

nificence of photography and considers her work an

invitation to experience the untainted beauty of this

world through her eyes.
