1999
Overview
[ERNA FERGUSSON] is a compelling figure in New Mexico history. An Albuquerque native who became a member of the Santa Fe writers colony, she wrote about the beauty and the cultures of the region, trumpeting its fame to the world.Fergusson's life and work so impressed Deborah Blanche a writer, actor and storyteller living in Las Vegas, N.M. that through theater, Blanche is trumpeting to the world the life of that celebrated author, traveler and tour guide.Blanche's one-woman show, Erna Fergusson: New Mexico's First Lady of Letters, brings to life that dynamic woman, who lived from 1888 to 1964. As part of Legacy: Living Cultural Heritage, a Chautauqua program presented by the New Mexico Endowment for the Humanities, Blanche performs her show at 5:30 p.m. today, June 18, at the Museum of Fine Arts. Admission is free.Blanche first encountered Fergusson's legacy in 1980, when Blanche read about Fergusson in an Albuquerque Historical Society calendar featuring a native New Mexican of note each month of the year.\"Being interested in women's history, I thought I'd just file her away for a time but she got filed away for quite a while,\" Blanche said. \"I didn't come back to her until 1995.\"Some of Blanche's friends moved across the street from Fergusson's Albuquerque home and Blanche began to hear more about the noted author who was close friends with Witter Bynner.
