Growing up before television, the vineyard country was her window to the outside world. Dee was first a New York state art teacher. Long after her children were grown, Dee wrote and illustrated her first book for elementary-aged children, The Pigs of Pineapple Beach. A few years later Dee wrote her first novel for teenagers titled, The Golden Moon, Maria’s Adventures on the High Seas. Her second novel, The Crimson Violin, is the sequel to The Golden Moon. Dee Russ Smith has resided on the Florida Space Coast for fifty years with her husband and a beautiful view of the ocean; her children and grandchildren are nearby. Reading continues to be her favorite past-time, and it was especially comforting and liberating during the confinement of the 2020 pandemic.view less
