Ellen's Story
Life:
I graduated from the University of Manitoba in 1964 - worked as a Social Worker for the Province of Manitoba for a couple years, then spent a year traveling in Europe and the Middle East.
I moved to Los Angeles in 1966 (where I still am) and have been a working photographer for the last 30 years. Before becoming a photographer, I worked as a Social Worker but when the first of my three children was born, I wanted a more flexible work schedule so turned a hobby into a profession I have "shot" many interesting events, including many celebrities (which was a thrill for a girl from Winnipeg who used to read "movie magazines").

About twenty years ago, I started running and it has become a passion. I have completed about 50 marathons (including Boston four times). I expanded into triathlons about 10 years ago - adding cycling and swimming to the challenge. Since 2005 I participated in the Senior Olympics every two years. On a National and World level I currently hold World title for Duathlon (run/bike) 2019 for my age group.
My three children all live close by in the Los Angeles area and and I have 6 grandchildren 3 - 11 years in 2020.
My sister, her four children and many high school friends still live in Winnipeg. I visit every couple years - last visit 2019 where I competed in a duathlon at Clear Lake
