Lori Ann Stewart
Lori Ann Stewart, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is a songwriter/musician. She has loved to write music and sing, as well as, play various instruments ever since she was a little girl. She enjoys all kinds of music, especially uplifting music.
In high school, Lori was first chair clarinetist in the Utah All-State Orchestra and performed in the Utah All-State Band. She was the pianist and saxophone player in her high school jazz band, and she also played the piano for her church choir. She took first place in the high school piano music festival, earning a scholarship. Lori also represented her high school as the music sterling scholar and took runner-up at the final state competition. As a result, she was offered scholarships to the college of her choice in the state of Utah.
Lori attended Snow College where she furthered her studies in music and academics. She later earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Information Systems Management, and a minor in Russian from Utah State University. She continued her training and education by doing an internship with the LDS Church as a computer programmer, helping them prepare for Y2K compliance. She then worked as a programmer for First Security Bank in Utah.
One of Lori’s favorite quotes is by Theodore Roosevelt:
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
Lori writes many songs and has one or two produced each month in the Tone Factory in Las Vegas, Nevada, under the direction of her producer, Vinnie Castaldo. Each song is beautifully illustrated by Jull Purpur Illustrations. Her music is available on iTunes, SoundCloud, and YouTube.
