Prior to that she was an elementary and high school teacher, a nursing assistant, and an employment counselor. She even occasionally drove cab, was a store detective and sold Avon door-to-door! She recently retired as Library Director at a large library in suburban Detroit that required crossing the border into the U.S.A. five days a week for several years. Her experience there, as Music & Special Collections Librarian when she was first hired, will be sure to enhance future books in her Musical Mystery Tour series.view less
