The picture above was taken when she was 9 years old, the age of Bub in Sing a Song For Me.
She graduated from the University of Kansas in 1952, married David Kaplan and raised four children of her own. She taught college english and previously published a book, "Daniel and Agnes Freeman Homesteaders", about the first homesteaders in the United States, who were also her great grandparents. She spent her adult life in Kansas and Nebraska, and currently resides in Hickman, Nebraska.
Beverly began drawing in her later years, even as she became blind from macular degeneration. Her pictures, some included in this book, are from her memories of her childhood on the farm.view less
