She subsequently lived in Ottawa, London, England, Cape Town, South Africa and Israel.
She has worked as a writer and editor for many publications, including The Jerusalem Post, Boston Globe, Winnipeg Free Press and Cape Times.
She began writing fiction in recent years, and has contributed to “Israel Short Stories” . She also wrote the children’s book “The Adventures of Mary Fairy” and now, a cozy mystery series, “Tension on a Pension”. The first book in the series, “Long in the Sleuth”, was inspired by her mother, Lil Matchan, and the retirement home she lived in.
Carol lives in Israel with her husband, and near two of her three children (the third lives in England). She has eight grandchildren.view less
