On the left is the photograph from my Cal Poly i.d. card, taken in September, 1980. On the right is the official photo taken when I became Director of I&IT Web Development in February, 2007. I'd like to blame the ensuing gray hairs on Cal Poly Pomona, but I think age had something to do with it, too.

The mirror (in a dressage arena) is made of metal, and it has sand scratches, so it's not especially clear. And my horse wondered about the horse in the face-off who didn't have any odor.

During the summer of 1997, I taught "Introductory Web Course Development" with Susan Kullman Puz, as part of the Summer Web Institutes and Mentoring program. Susan took digital photos of many of the participants for their web pages; this is mine. (Photo by Susan Kullman)

At the Santa Barbara Renaissance Festival in September, 1997, I was the "announcer" for the Jouyssance Early Music Ensemble, as well as singing, dancing, playing recorder, tambourine, and hangman's noose. When I was a graduate student, we joked about avoiding overspecialization by becoming "Renaissance botanists". I think I've succeeded. (Photo by Nancy A. Charest)
