Book List

Penny Key

Penny Key picked up her first deck of tarot cards while in college in the early 70s, and learned to read by mentorship as well as studying the few books (one) on the subject in the library of her small Southern city. She moved to Los Angeles in the late 70s, and while working in the entertainment industry, she worked at Psychic Fairs as a tarot reader, acquiring a small clientèle. She stopped reading “professionally” because she began to feel like a therapist and felt unqualified to help her clients further. Now, she only read for friends and family. She spent many years in the entertainment industry, including nearly a decade as a talent agent. Ironically it was while she was an agent that she felt the call to actually become a psychotherapist, and returned to graduate school to get a master’s in psychology. Today she’s a Marriage and Family Therapist, working as a counselor at an art college. She also has a private practice in Santa Monica, CA, and has recently joined a small discussion group interested in exploring the psychological side of tarot.
