Ruth M. Earn was born in Manchester, Ct. which was called "The City
of Village Charm." In its early years, this village was the home of
the Cheney silk and velvet weaving industry. These beautifully
woven tapestries decorated many places, including the White House
in Washington D.C. Unique is the fact that the Cheney weaving Mills
were among the first to use the moveable cards of JACQUARD to weave
material. This was the JACQUARD concept that led to the beginnings
of the computer age. "My father, Ruth says, wove these beautiful
Jacquard materials." One of her poems speaks of her father's work.
This is what inspired her to call her poetry collection THE LARGER
TAPESTRY.
