SALISBURY, MD---Author Barbara Lockhart continues Salisbury University’s Writers on the Shore series 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 4, in the Montgomery Room of the Commons.

Lockhart has earned individual artist awards in fiction from the Maryland State Arts Council for excerpts from her novels Requiem for a Summer Cottage and Elizabeth’s Field, as well as for her short stories. Her works have appeared in publications including Indiana Review, The Greensboro Review, Pleiades, Women’s Words, Oceana Magazine and the anthology Generation to Generation.

In addition, she has written several children’s books, including Rambling Raft, Once a Pony Time (both with her daughter, Lynne Lockhart) and Mosey’s Field.
