I went west for my education, graduating from the University of Arizona, where I majored in art, history, and English. I lived in Tucson for a number of years and came east with my former husband. I have two beautiful daughters and one beautiful grandchild. We live separately in Greenwich, Connecticut. I love to read, play the piano and golf, and I take long walks in my neighborhood. I have written two children's books: The Journey to the Great Pond and The Edge of the Woods. I have also written the novel "Skullduggery." I'm in the process of gathering thoughts for my next novel.view less
