Kathryn Minette, Santa Fe :: and her husband, Stan Biderman, who attended North Texas in 1969, collaborated on their first book together, Bullet Trains to Yaks: Glimpses into Art, Politics and Culture in China and Tibet (Irony Press). They went on a five-week art-buying expedition through the area, and the resulting book is filled with their impressions and with photos Kathryn took of the journey. She is a mixed media artist who retired after a visual art career of more than 30 years in New Mexico’s public schools and as director of the state’s Art in Public Places program.
