Ann V. Klotz Recaps her Adventures at the American Writers Museum for the Huffington Post

Laurel Headmistress Ann V. Klotz recently visited Chicago and the American Writers Museum.
As a self-proclaimed "reader who writes", she chronicles her visit for a piece that was published by the Huffington Post titled "Books, Books, Books and the People Who Wrote Them: My Adventures at the American Writers Museum." In her article Ann states that upon entering the museum she "dives in, reading, turning the triangles, hopping from one author to the next, gorging myself. It’s as if someone has demanded I consume a tray of truffles instantly. First, I seek old friends: Emily Dickinson, of course, and Willa Cather and Edith Wharton and Eudora Welty, Linda Brent and Anne Bradstreet and Louisa May Alcott. All the guys are there, too: Poe and Emerson, Thoreau, Steinbeck, F. Scott, Hawthorne." Throughout the article Ann expertly details her experience at the museum allowing readers to feel they were there right alongside her.
