Heidi McGurrin is a poet, painter, photographer and writer. Although poetry has always been a part of her artistic vocabulary, it was only in 2017 that she began to share her poems with the public through such groups as the Monterey Bay Poetry Consortium, and the Illia Thompson memoir writers and other poetry groups. She has published two books titled, Havana Dream, and Poetic Landscapes, Memories of My life, which can be found on the website www.blurb.com in the bookstore section. She is the granddaughter of the founder an artists’ colony which is today Carmel-by-the-Sea, and lives on the Monterey peninsula where she creates artwork and teaches poetry and painting to children from nearby coastal towns.
