Norris Ann Patterson Novak came to Princeton, the fall of 2004 graduating from Bryn Mawr School in Baltimore, MD in the spring of 2004. She currently plays sports and does not know what she wants to do with the rest of her life. Her first name is actually a double name, Norris Ann, but she rarely goes by it. Norris actually is her mother's maiden name. She is the youngest of three in the Novak family. She has an older brother, Matthew, that attends Vanderbilt and an older sister, Ginna, who is currently a teacher and director of social activities at a boarding school in Florida. Norris began her writing career as a young child when she wrote a story about how she was bitten by a squirrel consequently receiving seven rabbie shots. She has had no published work except for this website. She met Nicholas Cage when she was six years old while he was filming Guarding Tess at her grandmother's house in Baltimore. She has been out the country twice: once on an exchange program to France for two weeks in eighth grade and once this past Christmas break when her lacrosse team travelled to Australia to play the Australian national team.
Norris first became interested in Cézanne when she saw one of his "Monte Saint Victoire" paintings in the Princeton Art Museum. She further became interested when she learned that the museum actually had a collection of Cézanne's watercolors and thus chose to write on those watercolors since she was able to see them while they were not on display in the actual museum. Norris plans on continuing her studies of Cézanne of both his watercolors and other series.
