Autorenporträt
Rosemary Yvonne Borel was born and raised in Jamaica and was the first woman to leave her homeland to study in England at the University of Leeds, from which she obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree. She served in the Jamaican diplomatic service, with tours of duty at the United Nations in New York and in London, England, before settling as a young married woman in Trinidad and Tobago. There, she raised two children and taught high school for sixteen years. Widowed at an early age, she migrated with her family to the United States in 1984. After twenty years employment with the U.S. Postal Service, she retired in 2006, and now lives in the Tampa Bay area with her husband, Charles. Her pursuits include gardening, Zumba dancing, and volunteering at her church and at the Straz Center for the Performing Arts.
