Patricia is a photographer and the author of the acclaimed Shadow of His Smile, the story of her husband John, Tony Bennett’s brother and mentor, and The Santeria Priestess, the story of a Santera from the time of Castro’s Cuba takeover to her shudder-inducing end. 

As a photographer, Patricia captures images with strong dynamic geometric configurations. As an author, she strives to capture life, which often offers undefined lines of demarcation. In both mediums, she takes the viewer or reader on a voyage into unfamiliar territories; historical, personal, religious and more.

She is active in the community. She has been the Director of the Town of Jupiter Art Committee, and is the founder and host of “Meet the Authors” at the Town of Jupiter. She is currently the Co- Chair of the North Palm Beach Cultural Alliance, a member of the Chamber of Commerce, a contributing member of The Lighthouse Art Gallery, and a member of Business 2 Business for Women. She serves on the boards of the Lighthouse Camera Club and SeaQuill Writers Cooperative. As a member of Creative Writers and the Abacoa Writers Group, Patricia organized the first annual Abacoa Writers event. She cares for an acre garden and is a long-time annual member of Disney.

Patricia continues her pursuit of photography and writing.
