Barbara Forrest Barbara Forrest was born in St. Louis, Missouri. She graduated from Edwardsville High School in Illinois and attended Valparaiso University for two years before transferring to University of Texas at Austin. After graduation, she was a social worker in Houston and Galveston before attending graduate school in Audiology.

They live in Lafayette Square, a beautiful Victorian neighborhood in St. Louis, and at their cabin Colorado, where she is still making art.
