Autorenporträt
Melissa R. Davies is a researcher, writer and podcaster ( Ohio Folklore ). Yet chief among these roles is that of a wonderer. She revels unearthing the stories of our forebears. A graduate of Defiance College and Wright State University, Melissa is also a practicing clinical psychologist. She and her husband are both native to northwest Ohio and live there still. He lovingly endures her fascination with all things spiritual. Melissa appreciates a well-planned trip to someplace new, a full-bodied cabernet shared with friends and quiet Sundays taking long strolls down wooded trails.
