About the Author

After a 27 year career as a high school English & Speech teacher in Cherry Hill NJ, I
retired...sort of. I continue to tutor both bedside and private students and have also substitute taught and acted in TV commercials. For fun, I play bridge, write, and enjoy my 6
grandchildren.
I was born in Western Springs IL, and there are few, if any, who can make that claim. You see
Western Springs does not have a hospital; I was born at home on Prospect Avenue, next door to the house where my father was born. My mother had had her first 2 babies in the hospital and was so happy with home delivery that she wrote an article published in magazine. The American Family.
My first national radio and television appearances were at the age of 9 on a long-ago, well-known show called The Quiz Kids. My sister Virginia Rhoads Kingland and my brother Gurrie Clark Rhoads were also on the show. Besides Virginia and Gurrie, I have 3 other siblings: Paul Kelly, a prominent Chicago lawyer; Cheryl Felicia, actress, comedian, director, producer, and owner of a renowned acting school in Falls Church VA; and Mark Quentin, author of the recently published Land of Lincoln, a clever compilation of tales from Illinois history.
I have been blessed with 3 children and 6 grandchildren: George Clews Carpenter (USAF Colonel, ret.., husband of JoAnne, father of Trey, Sean, and Ashley); Gregg Rhoads Carpenter (musician--sings, plays lead guitar, solo or often with a band called Fuzzy Paradise, father of Dylan & Zach)); and Mary Ginanne Carpenter D'Anastasio (works with autistic children), wife of Robert, mother of Gia.).
