Detroit Doll Show founder is determined to keep it going

Even when spending time in her beloved butterfly garden at her northwest Detroit home, dolls are still very much on the mind of Sandra Epps, founder of the Detroit Doll Show.  After a two-year absence, the event, which Epps calls "a celebration of history, culture, self-love and diversity" will return Saturday, Nov. 12 at the Marygrove Conservancy.
