Autorenporträt
Laurie Forrest was born in Winnipeg, MB, but soon moved with her family to Venice, California, where she grew up. She later moved to Santa Monica, where she has lived for most of her life. She lives there now with her husband Larry. Feeling saddened by the lack of written stories of the lives of her family members, Laurie was driven to begin recording the lives of her grandchildren and eventually her own life. She further honed her skills in a memoir writing class and a writing club, and has previously had works published in the Santa Monica College collaborative journal, "The Ongoing Moment: Literature and Art from SMC Emeritus." In addition to writing, Laurie enjoys being active, traveling, and spending time with her family.
