Happy/L.A. Hyder, fine artist/photographer, assamblage artist, performer, and writer, is founder and Executive Director of LVA: Lesbians in the Visual Arts, a San Francisco-based international advocacy and networking organization. LVA can be reached at (415) 788-6118 and www.lesbianarts.org. Photographing exclusively in color after honing her skills exclusively in b&w, Happy's work can be seen on LVA's site and at www.womansart.com. Wielding her camera as a painter would her brush, Happy's goal is for her viewers to see with a different eye. Her photograph "New Country Daughter/Lebanese American" will be printed in the newly reedited book"This Bridge Called My Back." She is published in "Food For Our Grandmothers," ed. Joanna Kadi.
