Her educational background includes an undergraduate degree in English, a master's degree in Clinical Art Therapy, and a paralegal certificate. For two years as a young woman, after graduating from the University of California at Berkeley, she served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Niger, West Africa. She then spent much of her adult life zig-zagging from place to place and job to job: Editor of a Newsletter in the United Nations' Department of Economic and Social Affairs in New York, legal secretary and paralegal in Santa Monica and San Francisco, psychotherapist in Napa, adjunct professor at Solano Community College in Northern California, and Military and Family Life Consultant in Germany, Kansas, Tennessee, Okinawa, and Southern California. She now enjoys country living and retirement with her husband and cats on their property in Napa County.
Writing has always been an integral part of her varied life. She attributes this in part to her parents instilling in her, during her formative years, a belief in the power of the written word to foster enlightened thought as well as to entertain.показать меньше
