Biography
Biography
Carson's love of words and writing began in elementary school. She published sporadically in high school, during her undergraduate years at Trinity College, University of Toronto, and while raising four children. Ann wrote, painted, and sculpted in Toronto and Manitoulin Island. She especially enjoyed reading from her work at multi-media events with other poets, writers, and artists, and with dancers and musicians. Carson also led workshops in how the arts create a new perspective in the ways we see ourselves and our world. Carson belonged to the League of Canadian Poets, Old Town ARTbeat, the Ontario Poetry Society, the Toronto Heliconian Club, and the Tower Poetry Society. She was a mother to four and grandmother to six. She loved music, theatre, gardening, gallery hopping, and bookstore browsing with family and friends. Carson died at her home in Toronto on 16 December 2023, at the age of 94.
