Cynthia Blomquist Gustavson

Cynthia Blomquist Gustavson (Wheelock’69) of Tulsa, Okla., published A Mischief of Mice: Secrets, Lies, and Love in the Sand Hills of Minnesota (Blooming Twig Books, 2023), a memoir of her earliest years. “The book tells about characters of the 1950s and ’60s, before the prevalence of television,” she writes, “but it is also a mystery.” Cynthia is a psychotherapist and was an early practitioner of poetry therapy.
