Ruth abandoned her love of art to pursue a life in the US Army, LA police officer, and collegiate softball coach, but has since returned to that first love. Her most recent work is on display in Saugatuck, soon to travel to Chicago.
She offered to give back to her HS Alma Mater through an art workshop and was initially approved -- but a conservative new board then refused because of Ruth's background. Ruth quickly decided to speak up at the Board meeting and made a simple request: "Permanently withdraw my name from the Allendale High School Hall of Fame."
