About EllynAnne Geisel

EllynAnne first tied on domestic armor in 2000 while writing an article about aprons and was struck by the history she knew must be woven into the fabric of that vintage garment. Since then she has gathered more than 400 aprons and apron memories from across America. From those stories EllynAnne curated and wrote Apron Chronicles, a traveling exhibit managed by The Women's Museum of Dallas, and wrote the award-winning The Apron Book. She also creates vintage designs for her company, Apron Memories®, and created Tie One On Day, recognized by Chase's Calendar of Events annually on Thanksgiving eve in celebration of the humble apron. She has been featured on CBS News Sunday Morning and NPR's Weekend All Things Considered. EllynAnne, the mother of two sons, lives with her husband in Pueblo, CO. www.apronmemories.com
