Modern American Canasta, Local Business

Dara Collins and Donna Miller-Small are the co-authors of *Modern American Canasta: The Complete Guide*. As passionate educators, we wrote this book to fill a gap in the market, documenting widely played rules of this increasingly popular game. We’ve successfully taught thousands of players—including over a thousand virtually for AARP—and strive to unite the Canasta community through social media, webinars, and interactive sessions. Our unique approach has enabled us to answer questions, share helpful strategies, and promote clarity in the rules, as Canasta lacks a governing body like the American Contract Bridge League.
