I grew up in Toledo, Ohio and went to Northwestern University for college (where I majored in theater). I moved to NYC after graduation.

I've worn many hats, career wise, including advertising copywriter, freelance journalist, literary agent and author.

I have two married children and two grand children. My husband and I raised our kids in Chappaqua, NY, and then decided we'd had enough of the cold weather and moved to Palm Beach Gardens, FL a little more than a dozen years ago. He plays golf; I write. It works well. :-)

My website has all kinds of information about my writing life but here's the short version: "I especially enjoy writing historical novels that shine a light on something happening or relevant today."
