The historical family drama follows the life and work of artist Keelin Ennis-Kherson beginning in the 1930s through the 1980s. The fictional account starts with her courtship, marriage and early years in Chicago, then follows her young family to Miami where she becomes a locally-celebrated sculptor. The story, based on actual events, documents how the main character, her family, and immediate peers adapt to major Twentieth Century events and public policy changes including the Kefauver investigations and congressional hearings, WWII, Civil Rights- era legislation, and more. Equally heartwarming, informative, and provocative, "The Girl from Garfield Park" follows the entire arc of the title character's life from the naive ingénue to the wise old sage. It also captures thoughtful insights into the heart, mind and soul of the artist at all stages of her journey.
