Author Event: Kathleen Gamble presents Echoes of a Global Life
About this Event
Echoes of a Global Life is part memoir, part travelogue, part history lesson. Kathleen lives in a world of constant change. Moving from city to city she says goodbye to one and starts to explore the next. Never two the same. She is a survivor. She keeps on going. Through trauma, including a plane crash, and other scary times, there is also humor. Kathleen was born in Asia and lived on five continents before she was eighteen. She takes you to Burma, USA, Mexico, Colombia, Nigeria, Switzerland, and Russia. She weaves in parts of each country she carries with her. Her family lives through a coup in Burma, student rioting in Colombia, two coups in Nigeria, and political unrest in Russia. Sometimes things are fabulous. Sometimes they are not. She is a Third Culture Kid, rootless and restless. As an adult she lived in Moscow for nine years during the 1990’s where she witnessed history in the making and a terrifying exit. Life is never boring.
Kathleen was born in Asia to US Expat parents. She has lived in twenty-two cities on five continents and traveled to over forty-five countries. She currently lives in Minnesota where she paints, draws, reads, takes photographs, blogs from time to time, walks in the woods and tries to cook exotic meals that never quite seem to turn out. Oh, and she writes. Her stories have been floating around the Internet since 2011.
