Christine Schimanski

Christine Schimanski comes from a family of six, two brothers and three sisters. I was born in a Queens NY Naval Hospital in 1964. My parents, Pearl and Herman were stationed at Ft. Hamilton, NY. My father served in the Army for thirty years. When I was about two, they moved to New Jersey where my father served his last years in the military at Ft. Monmouth.

I have published several poems and have written several songs which were professionally produced. http://www.broadjam.com/christine

I have also published photographs of the beauty of Sedona, Az.
