Autorenporträt

Sandy Stacey was born in Newark, New Jersey and now lives in Santa Monica, California. She came to California at the age of three in 1937 and spent her formative years in an exclusive private girls school in Los Angeles. After graduating at 16, she was hired as a singer by Edwin Lester of the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera Association, touring and performing in the Song of Norway, starring Jean Fenn, John Tyler and Robert Rounsfeld. She married at 18 and had three children while continuing to sing in theatre and opera productions, including "Rigoletto," "Marriage of Figaro" "Madam Butterfly," and "La Traviata." Sandy sang in over 40 Broadway shows at the renowned Melodyland theaters. After a series of unexpected events, Sandy moved to the Convict Lake backcountry of the eastern High Sierras in 1970. There Sandy met three rough but caring cowboys who took her under their wing. She remained with them on the trail for more than a decade before returning to normal life. The trail life was and will always be Sandy's dream.
