Kathleen Coughlin Dunn

Writer, Publisher

Kathleen Coughlin Dunn is a Montrealer now living in Westmount. Widowed at 64, this one-time public relations writer turned to poetry and process art to come to terms with the strong emotions surfacing in her very vivid night dreams. Over a fifteen-year period, she was amazed how much could be said with so few words. Twice married and widowed, she has one daughter who is married with two children. She also has four adult stepchildren with spouses, children and grandchildren of their own. Not one to rest on her laurels, Kathleen decided to mark her 80th birthday by self- publishing her poetry. With hindsight, insight, and foresight, Second Chances delves into the ups and downs of Kathleen’s life which she hopes will resonate with readers.
