I'm the widow of Bob Wallace, the software pioneer. He has his own Wikipedia page.

Born in San Francisco in 1950, I grew up there in the '60s. That was one of the most incredible and valuable experiences of my life. My passion is art, and my art subjects are animals, birds, and flowers. I became a success in my 20's--that is I made a living at painting, which very few artists ever do. With the 1980 recession, I moved north to Seattle which is where I met Bob, and became the first employee of his fledgling software company Quicksoft. Bob was the author of PC-Write, the first shareware word processor, and also the 9th employee of Microsoft.

Now that I'm retired, I'm devoting full time to my art.
