Lana Jean Rose is an acclaimed environmental artist who has received grants from many notable foundations such as the National Endowment for the Arts, the Rockefeller, Zellerbach, and the Walter and Elise Haas Foundation. She has exhibited throughout Europe and the United States.

Lana is also the author of "Arrivals and Departures from Normal," a book she turned to writing when she suddenly found herself unable to practice her art due to physical pain. In the process of writing "Arrivals and Departures from Normal", confronted her own inner demons from her past.

"My book is about a teenage girl in her senior year of high school who was emotionally abandoned by her parents, abruptly forced to confront the absurd obstacles of life on her own," said Rose.

Alone, she scrapes and claws her way through life as she grows to become a vibrant and driven individual, faced with a human need for acceptance and love. In what has been called a "mesmerizing, true-to-life story" by reviewers, Rose shows emotional honesty about both the intense lows of feeling unloved and the great heights of the human spirit.
