About the Author

Fran has a passion for people and an enthusiasm for their personal histories. In this first novel, FRED: Buffalo Building of Dreams, she uses her story telling skills to help Fred impart the compelling tales of his tenants and their families who called him their home for over more that a century. It is an imaginative and well researched slice of history as told by a humble apartment building. Fred's intimate observations reveal to him(and us) what it means to be human.

With possible demolition looming, Fran's goal was to tell the buildings tales before it was too late. Her promise to Fred has been achieved and it has been an extraordinary experience that changed her life forever. She learned the importance of historical accuracy and the truths it reveals.
