Autorenporträt

Aphrodite Anagnost is a first-generation Greek-American Maniot, descended from the ancient Dorian tribe of Spartans who hail from Areopolis. Her first employer was her horse riding teacher; and her second, her parents, who entertained Vegas acts in their barn-turned cosmopolitan restaurant next to the once famous Warwick Musical Summer Theatre. It was at the Country Inn Restaurant where Aphrodite learned to cook a lobster, mix a martini, serve celebrities, mingle with the Rhode Island mafia, wash dishes, and swab the deck. Later, her mother, Panagiota, gave her the American name "Frances" to make growing up easier. She has studied world religions, including the ancient Pagan practices of her ancestral clan of Maniates, and is a devout Orthodox Church member, though she believes all religions seek the truth. Later Dr. Frances Aphrodite Anagnost Willams worked as a laboratory assistant, chemistry tutor, dressage horse trainer, family physician, obesity specialist, and hospitalist.
