N.K. Beckley

Mrs. Beckley grew up in suburban Philadelphia in the small borough of Rose Valley—until she and her family were transferred to Detroit in 1976. She is the mother of two grown daughters and the grandmother of five grandchildren. In her spare time, she likes to read, write, cook, bake, teach American Sign Language for the Deaf and music, after school. She also enjoys dance and American Musical Theater. Mrs. Beckley has taught music and elementary school in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Virginia for over thirty years. All of her students learned to Sign for the Deaf whether it was in her classroom or in her music classes.
