Alice Ratterree has enjoyed a career as an award-winning children’s book illustrator, a designer for Great Arrow Graphics greeting cards, an art contributor for the Community Journal publications and with the Metropolitan Arts Council, where she currently serves as Director of Marketing. She began her career as a classically trained singer, with degrees in vocal performance from Florida State University and Boston University, and appeared as a soloist with numerous operatic and oratorio venues before landing in Greenville, SC, with her unflappable husband, their two children, and Sam the Cat, who thinks he’s a dog.
