About the Author
Diana grew up in a small town in
eastern Connecticut. The mill
town, Willimantic, once a thriving
economic center, was the largest
nearby community. There she
remembers the mills, established in
the 1800s and running until the mid
1980s. She has many ties to the
mills and mill towns in eastern
Connecticut, so it was natural that
her first published novel is set in
one of them.

Between her first 5 years at the Coventry Broadcaster and over 20 years at the Hartford
Courant, Diana has been involved with ink for nearly 3 decades.
"I enjoy writing about Eastern Connecticut, the places, the legends. When I hear of a
legend or tale, it peaks my curiosity and whets my imagination. I like going through old
pictures, postcards and newspaper articles, these sometimes give me ideas for stories."
"I hope you enjoy my first novel, SINGING HER ALIVE."
"I expect to have JENNY'S WAY out for summer 2012 reading.
