Kathryn's Naples (Florida) Daily News Blog: Kathryn is now writing a weekly blog for the online Naples Daily News in Southwest Florida. "Life in The Slow Lane" is about everyday events and people with which everyone can identify. Funny, sometimes poignant, tongue-in-cheek, and even a little edgy now and then, Kathryn's literary style has been compared to Andy Rooney and Maureen Dowd. Regular readers of Life in the Slow Lane are often invited to contribute possible topics for the blog. Kathryn also contributes the occasional "hard news" article to the News publications as well.

"I'm still performing," says Kathryn, "but I was a writer before I was a singer, and this is almost like going home. I'm having a great time."

Bill Cherry: Bill's referring to himself as piano tuner is tantamount to Einstein suggesting that he "fiddled around a little with numbers." Bill, a published author, radio and tv personality, businessman and musician, was Kathryn's mentor at the beginning, helping secure her first professional gig in 1966 at the Lookout Room in Galveston's exotic Flagship Hotel on the Pier. Bill is a man of many talents, with a vitae in music (among other things) that found him playing some of the most famous 5 star dining rooms thoughout the USA. Bill now lives in Dallas, and performs his piano wizardry only on a part-time basis, but his influence is still very much felt nationwide. And the pianos he tunes are very, very happy.
Bill Cherry vitae: "Einstein" revealed here.

"The Virtuoso", a novel by George P. Walmsley: A new novel by my good friend George P. Walmsley, "The Virtuoso," is a labor of love, taking place in New York, and the Big Easy, New Orleans.
In George's words, "The Virtuoso" is a mainstream contemporary novel laced with the struggles and ambivalence of a young man's desire to be a jazz musician and the forces that move him in another direction - toward the classics. How this dilemma resolves itself and the escapades along the way and beyond will both rouse, yet soothe your quest for escape from the mundane! "The Virtuoso"
is also love story as well as a story with scarlet moments of lust from that oldest story of all - the story of human frailty against the spear of temptation."

Some of Kathryn's Favorite Charities: Kathryn believes that those who have the ability, time and resources to do so have a willing obligation to "give back." She spends a great deal of her time volunteering in causes from animal welfare, developmental disabilities, the environment, among others. Below are three of her favorite charities, but by no means the only ones she endorses and supports. Profits from the sale of her 2007 CD, "Where Can I Go Without You?" are donated to charity.
Danbury Animal Welfare Society, Inc: The website of a very special group of animals, and people, in southwestern Connecticut. The largest totally volunteer owned and operated animal welfare organization in CT, with a stand-alone shelter and many local programs, Kathryn spent many heartwarming hours socializing abused dogs, and serving as President. She learned that donations to this "no-kill" shelter do precisely what "DAWS" claims they do.
Doctors Without Borders: An incredible group of clinicians who risk their lives to provide medical care to people in places of which many in the USA have never even heard, much less seen. Treating people without regard to race, nationality, creed, color, or socio-economic status, this organization was also a favorite charity of Kathryn's late husband, Capt. Al Taubert, who, as a Pan American World Airways commercial airline pilot, saw many of those places Doctors Without Borders goes. Al's positive influence on the lives of those around him was profound, enduring, and an example to all who knew him.
