Produktbeschreibung
In the midst of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, an unexpected poet emerges. Sparked by her nephew's encouragement and frustration with the pandemic, architect Gloria Jaroff embarks on a journey of self-discovery through the power of prose. Rhyming and Riffing My Way to 100 Years is a collection of photographs and fifty-one poems, each a unique story inspired by life's everyday moments and conversations. They fall into three distinct categories: rants, raves, and reflections. From expressing annoyance to showing gratitude and pondering life's mysteries and contradictions, Gloria navigates through her emotions, using poetry as her compass. In her nineties, the author uncovers her hidden talent, proving it's never too late to discover a new passion. Her rhymes, like her jazz piano improvisations, are emotional expressions that resonate with the rhythm of life. This book is not just a collection of poems; it's a testament to the therapeutic power of writing and the inspiration that can be found in the ordinary. Rhyming and Riffing My Way to 100 Years is a beacon of hope, a source of comfort, and an invitation to readers to embark on their own journey of self-discovery.

Autorenporträt
Gloria Jaroff is a Renaissance woman. Her multiple careers began with sixty years of interior design and architecture, which led to the publication of The Nature of Color in Interior Design, and six years of public speaking at lighting conventions about her unique color and light theory. She is an emeritus member of the American Institute of Architects. Her poetry writing is a natural extension of her performance as a jazz pianist and storytelling techniques acquired while working on the Tokyo Disney Sea and California Adventure theme park designs at Walt Disney Imagineering.
