Autorenporträt

Linda Schiro-Ross was born in Rockford, Illinois, and moved to Chicago in May 1961. She graduated from Moser Secretarial School and worked for one of the top five law firms in the nation. She and her husband, Larry, resided in Naperville, Illinois, for thirty-two years and have two daughters and four grandchildren. After raising her daughters, Linda went back to work as an administrative secretary for the assistant superintendent at Indian Prairie School District #204 in Naperville/Aurora until she retired. She and her husband now reside in Citrus County, Florida. A second-generation Sicilian/Italian, Linda has preserved her passion for the Sicilian culture in cooking and in the memories that remain of her ancestors, as shown in her first publication of Nana Eggs: With Soldiers, as well as her current publication of May Day: I Could Use Some Help Here. Linda has traveled to the ends of the earth to such places as Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, South America, and the Middle East. Her bucket list has not yet been completed. Don't expect to see a third book too soon, as Linda has to go back to the drawing board and continue her journey through life.
