Bonnie McCluskey
- Actress
A gentle soul was born mid 20th Century to Bill and Phillis O'Connor.
She was just a bit deformed and unwell, but knew she was blessed to see
good and beauty in all around her. She grew up moving to many towns in
New York including Elmira, Horseheads, Tonawanda, Loon Lake, Wayland,
Green Acres, Hornell, Buffalo, Smallwood, and Amherst. The cold and
pollution were difficult for her so she spent much of her time curled
up by the heater reading, playing board gamesp, dress-up, make believe
and watching TV. Mid 8th grade her father brought her to Lake City,
Florida where she stayed through graduating from Columbia High School.
She and her best friends planned on bringing festivals of the arts to
small communities across the country. One friend would major in Art,
another in Music, that left Drama for Bonnie.
