She was the recipient of two prestigious awards from the Society of Illustrators!
Society of Illustrators 52 WEST - Children's Market Catagory

The tickle of sand on the bottom of bare feet … the taste
of salt from a spray of water … the rumble-roar as waves come ashore. These are just a few of the many sensory experiences a day at the beach can bring. S is for Sea Glass: A Beach Alphabet uses a variety of poetry forms such as free verse, haiku, and ode in this celebration of
the beach and seaside life. Poet Richard Michelson and illustrator Doris Ettlinger remind beach lovers of all
ages of the many reasons we’re drawn to the shore.
