Was Barbara Virgo. Mainly grew up in Cazenovia NY though lived in King Ferry NY for a few years. Grandparents had a camp on DeRuyter Lake, which my brother Jim now owns. My cousin Don Cornue has the camp next to Jim's. Went to Lake Erie College in Painesville, OH. After college moved to Washington D.C (1965-1984), met and married Jim Hobbs there. Moved to Winston-Salem, NC in 1984 so Jim could become head of the lighting design program at NC School of the Arts. Got my Ph.D. from the University of NC at Greensboro. Still live in Winston-Salem.
