Born in the United States, Jeanne Bushey, along with her husband and two daughters, set out for
Iqualuit in 1973 and later moved to Yellowknife. She has been a kindergarden teacher and also has an
interest in drama. She began writing original scripts for her own productions and co–founded the
Mildred Hall Drama Festival. She turned her talents to writing stories and articles for magazines such
as Children's Digest, Learning Magazine, Today's Parent and Parenting Magazine. Jeanne Bushey has written
the children's books, The Polar Bear's Gift, A Sled Dog for Moshi and Holiday Hang–Ups (an activity gude).
Although she has moved to coastal British Columbia, she hopes to keep the events of her life in the Arctic alive
in her writing for years to come. |
