Once upon a time... |
Rae St. Clair Bridgman is an award-winning Winnipeg author and illustrator of children’s books, including several picture books and the mythical MiddleGate Books. University professor, anthropologist, urban planner, mother of six, grandmother to eight ... she has a knack for finding the magical and extraordinary in the ordinary, in between the cracks of reality. Favourite things to do in her spare time: watching ants, chasing crayfish, reading the dictionary, playing tuba, watching clouds, and inventing toys.
Favourite sayings - "Often, secrets do not remain secrets for long." “Things that disappear by themselves can come back by themselves.” “Problems can multiply like flies.” “The story certainly changes depending on the storyteller.” |
Rae co-directs the Winnipeg design studio BridgmanCollaborative Architecture and is a professor of city planning in the Faculty of Architecture at the University of Manitoba. She earned her B.A. (classics) and Bachelor of Music at the University of Toronto, as well as a Master's (interdisciplinary studies) and PhD (anthropology) at York University.
