    Jill Perry Carpenter

    Raised around the rolling hills of West Virginia, few things sparked Jill Perry Carpenter’s imagination like a blank sheet of paper just waiting to be filled. Many years later, she would adopt a down-on-his-luck pit bull and name him Ca$h Money. The inspiration for Walt the Street Dog had arrived. Jill, her husband Ed and her Muse now live in Delaware, where there are endless sheets of blank paper waiting to be filled.
