Autorenporträt
A native of Virginia, Jean Moore Earl grew up in the foothills of the Appalachians as part of a family with deep roots in the folk traditions of the region. Her interest in the documentation and preservation of traditional folk arts, crafts, and culture was further developed while attending Berea College in Berea, Kentucky. It was while working as a community health nurse in Reno that she first became acquainted with Basque Culture, following home health visits to retired Basque sheepherders.
