Elizabeth arrived in 1968 and was clearly a performer even though she was born to an engineer and a school teacher. She began her career at the young age of ten when she was picked out of her entire class to be the co-host of Just Kidding, a children's program shown on the NBC affiliate in Portland, Oregon. She was asked to come back three more times, and thus began her love for the performing arts. She spent summers at Portland Civic Theatre learning the ropes about acting and performing to a large audience. Elizabeth earned her Bachelor's Degree in Mass Communications and Broadcasting in 1991, and soon became a local radio personality at KBOO-FM in Portland. Elizabeth is the voice of the autopsy exhibit in the forensic wing at the United States National Museum of Medicine. She and her dance partner, Scott, teach Ballroom Dance at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. Oh, and she's also a full time mortician, owning Cornerstone Funeral Services in Boring, Oregon where she is known as the Green Reaper for her advocacy of green burial. Her book, The Green Reaper: Memoir of an Eco-Mortician, was purchased by WiDo Publishing and will be out in 2017. Her latest book, Green Burial Guidebook, a look at alternatives to traditional casket burials or cremation, was purchased by New World Library, for release in 2018. Show less «
