- Lynn Rae Lowe
- "Lynn Rae has lived her life somewhere between the right and left brain with zeal and achievements across many creative disciplines. Beginning at 5 as a dancer, by nine she was acclaimed actress playing on opposite George C. Scott. She has continued as a stage actress as a performer and writer. She also self published a book and wrote newspaper articles as the “The Gardening Guru”. Starting as the Caterer for the Telluride Film Festival she eventually became Projects and Art Director with a staff of 250 people. To her musical credit, she has sung in Carnegie Hall as well as being producer of the Telluride Jazz Festival and Station Manager of an NPR radio station. As a teacher, she was an originator of Colorado Artist in the school program. Her adult program "Drawing It Out” is based on her core belief that it’s not that artists are special kinds of people, but rather each person is a special kind of artist. Her artistic development, since returning to college to finish her degree with her children in the 90’s, has been internationally recognized through her award winning metal artwork. This has included prestigious museum exhibits, as well as having international gallery representation. Her next phase of soul fulfillment is to share how you can tap into and use your creativity to live a more joyful existence."--taken from https://www.lynnraelowe.com/artist-statement, accessed 8/17/18.

- M.A. Glascoe
- According to oral history interviewee Richard Williams, Glascoe was an early resident of Mesa County and a part owner of the COPECO fruit growing operation, which he bought into after its sale by the original owners Elmer Craven and William Moyer. He worked as a dealer for the Conoco Oil Company and later as a realtor. According to local historian Bill Nelson, Glascoe, who apparently belonged to the nascent First Baptist Church in Grand Junction, signed a letter protesting the potential construction of the first church building on government land. The city of Grand Junction provided free land on White Avenue to any church wanting to build there in the 1880’s, but the First Baptist Church instead ended up building on Grand Avenue, near the site of the current Mesa County Libraries Central Branch.
