Kira Keck

Kira Keck is a junior at Linworth and Kilbourne. Her passions are art (fibers,comics), women's rights, literature (sci-fi, The Enchantress from the Stars, Abarat) and Star Trek. Her interests are Plushies (stuffed animals), 1960s American history, art, comics and Japanese culture. She is inspired by people who make comics because they are self-publishing and ambitious. For Walkabout, she wants to go abroad (possibly England) for one of them and stay here for the other. For the one here, she may want to work with a textile designer or go to Afailble  Light Theatre. Her favorite things about Linworth are the classes because of the variety and the discussion. She also likes the smallness of the school. Her plans after high school are going to a liberal arts or art school. She is considering Hampshire College or SCAD.  She favors depressing music,hipster music and 80s new wave music. She likes Sufjan Stevens, Death Cab for Cutie, Vampire Weekend, Simon and Garfunkle. Her favorite colors are purple because its "lovely" and grey. You may see her eating Indian or Vietnamese food. Or she may be eating Amul India or Jeni's Ice Cream. She enjoys watching TV shows such as Dexter, Star Trek and Project Runway. An interesting fact about Kira is as a child is that her parents only let her watch cartoons on PBS or video tape because of the commercials on regular TV. She also watched Montey Python as a kid.
