About The Author
Janet Lee Berg

Janet Lee Berg grew up on Massapequa, Long Island where the story is set and currently resides in Charleston, South Carolina with a dual residence in New York. After traveling the world as a stewardess, she worked as a journalist for a Hamptons/NYC magazine, where she was afforded the opportunity to interview numerous celebrities, some of her favorites being Linda Ronstadt and Ray Davies of the Kinks.

Berg earned an MFA in Creative Writing and Literature from Stony Brook, Southampton, mentored by authored professors, including Ursula Hegi and Frank McCourt. She also worked with school children all over Long Island, inspiring them to write their first published words. She then published two children’s books and is presently working on another for middle-graders about the Holocaust, a topic she believes should be introduced at an early age.
