Susan Longmire

SUSAN LONGMIRE is an award-winning film and television producer who began to explore papier-maché sculpture as an antidote to her production work. One of her most successful projects has been a collection of nineteen busts of Canadian writers—whimsical, astutely-observed, and finished in text from their actual works. The collection has traveled to several literary festivals, and will be showcased this year by THIN AIR at the Ralph Connor House. Ralph Connor, one of Winnipeg’s literary legends from early in the 20th century, is included in the collection. Longmire lives with her husband, Henri Fiks, in Tréchy, a village southwest of Paris.
