Prince Rogers Nelson (1958-2016)
Summary
CHRISTINE G. ADAMO is a lifelong typist on a quest to answer the age-old question: Who in their right mind would write, revise, edit or proofread for a living? Let alone tackle marketing, layout and design?! (Uh, she would!) A former exchange student and Marine sergeant, this journalist turned freelancer helps clients worldwide breathe life into everything from artist bios and dog poetry to marketing one sheets. Christine lives with her dogs, Ava and Bentley, in the greater Finger Lakes region. They share their home with pop culture memorabilia which may or may not include a few hundred LPs.
