Autorenporträt
One of ten children, Jeannie Middleton was born and raised in New York City, along with her identical twin sister and best friend, Jayne. The family moved to Richmond Hills, Queens, when they were ten and their parents bought their first house. It was like moving into a mansion! Attending college, she first graduated with a nursing degree, and then with a degree in psychology. Jeannie loves spending time with family and friends, enjoying backyard barbeques and the simply things in life. But most of all she enjoys helping to solve everyone's problems and being there for someone who is in need of a friend. She currently lives in Lindenhurst, Long Island, with her husband of 30 years, and together they have a son, three lovely grandchildren, three German shepherds, and two cats.
