Often schooled away from her family, a variety of adults substituted as parent figures in her life, experiences which shaped her and her world view. Nancy graduated from Carleton College and received her library science degree at Pratt Institute. She worked as a high school librarian in Durham, North Carolina, where she has lived with her husband for 46 years. She has two sons and four grandchildren who add in delightful ways to her sense of self. Nancy is the author of At Home Abroad: An American Girl in Africa, which was honored with the Reviewers Choice Award by Reader Views in 2010. Her essays have appeared in Unrooted Childhoods: Memoirs of Growing Up Global and Writing Out of Limbo: International Childhoods, Global Nomads and Third Culture Kids.показать меньше
