She graduated from the University of Maryland with a B. A. Degree in English and later received an M.A. in Secondary School Counseling from The George Washington University. She taught English in Prince George’s County, MD high schools for a number of years and then was a high school counselor for almost twenty years. She returned to Calvert County to resume some of the farming activity that she had grown to enjoy and respect as a child.
The writer is concerned about the abuse and misuse of the fine farmland and beautiful bodies of water that are not being used for pleasure and fine seafood because of the problems that are being ignored to save the dwindling number of farms and the beautiful bodies of water. The author has published two books with a Calvert County setting and Young Rebel With a Cause has a similar setting. Her Grandfather, Dr. Julius Otho Dorsey, who was a surgeon in the Civil War, had spent his childhood in Calvert County. Calvert’s Gold was published in 2003 about life in Calvert County in the 1920s and 30s. Calvert Remember Me was published in 2007 and concerns two young attractive high school teachers in the 2000s who have shown a desire to help their students reach their potential by exposing them to more activities that will increase their self-esteem and motivation.показать меньше
