I have known Lynn since our very first day sharing an office as First Year Associates in that major Wall Street law firm. Lynn always rocked. Her personal style stood out in what passed for 'woman lawyer uniform' back in the day when we were far and few between in the corridors of power. The only fault that Lynn ever had was modesty. She's sharp as a tack. Lynn's meteoric rise in the world of decorative arts and design is no surprise to her friends. To use a tricky but apt Irish expression (which I'll then explain for fear of leaving you in shock), she didn't lick it off the ground (denoting inherited traits)!
Linda, thank you for adding some flesh to the bones of my story with your incredibly complimentary words about our early life. . What a wonderfully auspicious day when I met you..❤️
as an incoming first year associate at a big firm who was also told to file my creative passions under “hobbies” this was a really poignant piece. thank you and truly, your home is beautiful. and I have to imagine, and it sounds like, you have a beautiful life to match!
Sweet Linda, thank you for sharing your life (bio) with me. I am sorry for all the personal changes and hardships you have endured the past few years ~ love your new goals. I will be reading and learning right by your side ~ xo Pam
Thank you so much Karen! You’ e got to keep plugging, right? And finding something to do that brings you steady joy (like writing this Substack for me), can only help.
