Deanne Burch was born and raised in Toronto, Canada and attended the University of Toronto, with a B.A. in both liberal arts and social work. She also lived eight years in Winnipeg where her husband was a professor of anthropology. Currently, she calls Harrisburg Pennsylvania home, though she spent many of her early years traveling and periodically living above the Arctic Circle while raising a family in the late 1960s. Recalling a ten-month visit to Kotzebue, Alaska, in the land of the midnight sun and Northern Lights, Deanne found inspiration for her first children’s picture book. Peter Trimarco started his professional doodling career as an editorial cartoonist before turning to commercial art and designing packaging for the music industry. While staying in the entertainment field, he published a trade magazine for the film industry and later brought his creative juices to the printed page for youngsters. Peter is the illustrator of numerous critically acclaimed picture books which have been honored by the prestigious IBPA Benjamin Franklin and Foreword Indies Awards. Catherine Gebauer is a fine artist who has taught children’s art programs for the Art Association of Harrisburg, Carlisle Arts Learning Center and the Susquehanna Art Museum in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In addition to Catherine’s creative endeavors, she has had a successful career as an attorney and is a graduate of Randolph Macon’s Woman’s College and the University of Richmond Law School. Outside the courtroom, her passions are painting in oils and watercolors. Her first book illustration project comes by way of adding color and visuals to the autobiographical tale written by her godmother.
