Hello, My name is Marie K. Rowley (My friends call me "M"). I'll put more on here when I find the time. I have a live journal that one could see here [1]. I am a member of U.S. Wikipedians' Notice Board and the Fun Department (yay). According to the Official "Are you a Wikipediholic" test I have a score of 60 which is really low :(

Here's something I stole from Francs2000

Picture of the day

Igor Stravinsky (17 June 1882 – 6 April 1971) was a Russian composer and conductor, considered to be one of the most important and influential composers of the 20th century. He studied under Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov until his death in 1908. Soon after, Stravinsky met the impresario Sergei Diaghilev, who commissioned the composer to write three ballets for Ballets Russes: The Firebird (1910), Petrushka (1911), and The Rite of Spring (1913), the last of which caused a near-riot at its premiere in Paris. His compositional style varied greatly, being influenced at different times by Russian folklore, neoclassicism, and serialism. His ideas influenced Aaron Copland, Philip Glass, Béla Bartók, and Pierre Boulez, who were all challenged to innovate beyond traditional tonality, rhythm, and form. This photograph of Stravinsky in the early 1920s is from the collection of the American photojournalist George Grantham Bain.Photograph credit: Bain News Service; restored by MyCatIsAChonk
