| shannon.in —– shannon k. johnson has been told she is a renaissance woman, an epicure, and a bundle of contradiction. :: east coast / west coast you get the idea. Her earliest memories are of lying under the car with her father handing him tools, sitting in the living room on Sunday mornings listening to classical music with her mom, and pretending she was darth vader out on the driveway. She spent most of her Friday nights during college at santa clara painting the walls of her dorm room while the rest of campus was out drinking at frat parties. After santa clara she decided she needed to find more like-minded people, and did so at rensselaer polytechnic where she received her M.F.A. in ’98 in electronic arts.
