Kathy Beckwith
Kathy Beckwith grew up on an Oregon farm. After college, she and her husband Wayne went to India with the Peace Corps to work in village horticulture. Later, a boarding school in South India became home to their family. Back in the U.S., Kathy became a community mediator, a mediation trainer and school mediation coach, a work she has done for nearly three decades in Oregon, and also in India. Their “family sabbatical” tradition has taken them back to “their school” and always back to their Peace Corps village in Karnataka. Like Annie in her young adult novel ENCOUNTER, after discovering another meaning for “Animator,” Kathy says, “That’s what I hope to be when I really grow up.” Kathy is a graduate of Northwest Nazarene University, Nampa, Idaho (Business Administration), and did a semester of advanced study with the University of the Seven Seas. She is a mom and grandma, and a picker of blackberries and baker of berry pies in the summer. She loves to look for “singing places” (which she always tries out), and likes walking on the country road near their home.
