Ms. Baross says, “People asked me if I liked Cuba and I tell them the most beautiful thing about Cuba was the resilient family I got to know. Their hearts were beautiful.”
Many of her iconic Cuban images found their way into her “Cuba Coloring Book” for children to get to know Cuba.

“Thumbs up! Having lived extensively in Paris, I call Ms. Baross’s charming and witty restaurant guide an unqualified triumph. She introduces me to restaurants I did not know existed and does it in the best French ‘bande dessiner’ tradition—that sophisticated comic book genre which, in France, can even include the life of Proust.”
—Lynn Jeffress, Paris journalist
Fifty-six pages of black and white illustrations and humorous commentary of my month long trip in Paris with Henry Millerís former chef, Twinka Theibaud. She was researching a book to uncover healthy dinning experiences. My job was to come along and eat. I sketched the places we went, the people we met and the unusual experiences that come to all of us travelers.
