Jean Yates's jewelry designs regularly appear in beading magazines, including Stringing, Beadwork, Simply Beads, and BeadStyle. She also recently published her first jewelry design book, Links. Jean lives in Westchester County, New York, with her husband Jim and three of her five sons. Jean's emails and blog are so warm and friendly that I feel like I have known her for years, but the truth is that I've known her for less than a year and I've never met her in person. What's more remarkable is that I'm sure I'm not the only person who feels that way!--Michelle Mach, Beading Daily editor
