Haydee has a B.A. in Philosophy and a law degree. She has published essays in The Jewish Times of Baltimore, The Baltimore Sun, The Examiner and the Loyola College Alumni Magazine. Haydee's experiences include engagement in politics, community outreach, and visits to war torn regions. In covering the American Visionary Art Museum, she wants readers to step back and ask: how do we connect to one another with shared symbols in a society fraught with so much change, excitement and tension?
