Hallie Muir: 1933 - 2012. "Mooey" brought an artist's sensibility to everything she undertook - she expressed herself in many forms, including music, storytelling and illustration. Danny and the Good Hope was inspired by her experiences during a period in her life when she lived in the small town of Bamfield on Vancouver Island's west coast.
