The Polka Dot Chair - Paperback

Born and raised in western Pennsylvania, Michele Heeney found her outlook changed when the '60s lured her to San Francisco.

Californian for many years after that, she also lived in Marin and Monterey Counties--as well as on Maui--before moving to New Mexico. She now makes her home in the town of Cochiti Lake on the Cochiti Pueblo reservation south of Santa Fe.

Besides writing poetry, her loves include bicycling, shopping at thrift stores, and photography, which she began underwater in her years as a scuba diver.

This is her fourth book of poetry.
