About the Creator

Sonia Heidi Unruh

I love: my husband and children; all who claim me as family or friend; the first bite of chocolate; the last blue before sunset; solving puzzles; stroking cats; finding myself by writing; losing myself in reading; the Creator who is love.

Lying on the floor, CDs are spread out around me. Some are in their cases, while others are bare. My music player softly pumps out melodies into the air.

What I learned about Vocal Challenges from...
The first cinema visit of last year was to see A Complete Unknown, with Timothee Chalamet playing Bob Dylan so well that it became one of my films of the year. It even won The Rachel for best musical biopic.
