She applied her public speaking expertise while lecturing in Long Island schools, colleges, and museums on different areas of Egyptology.
Middle school age students have completed most of the art projects aided by written instructions and basic materials for each project. Teachers have read Ms. Schatz's manuscript and found it to be a valuable resource for young adult students, as well as their teachers and parents involved in studying ancient Egypt.
Ms. Schatz has had a lifetime love for all things ancient Egyptian. During the past twenty years, she has accumulated her own vast library of over 180 volumes on all phases of Egyptology. Most of those books (some over 100 years old) are the sources of the information used in her book, ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ART - THE FUN WAY.
