Sheila James is a social historian and genealogist also known by the pseudonym Cecile Jacobs, which she uses for her fibre artwork (www.cecilejacobs.com). She has combined her passions for historical research and the theatre in the series of plays 'Exposing Good', in which she explores the real stories behind people who have been given a 'bad rap' by the victors in history. These are included in her 3-volume 'Collected Works' (Lulu Press), and in a 3-volume set 'The not-so-Dark Ages' she shows how to place one's ancestors in the narrative of world history (www.rarevintage.ca).
