Autorenporträt
Rory Barish was born in New York City. Her inspiration for writing this book was based on her life and struggles as a teen with severe scoliosis. She felt unattractive, lacked self-esteem, and was being bullied by those around her. At times, her life seemed hopeless. However, it was the discovery of something truly magical that completely turned her life around and not only gave her the tools to survive but turned her life into a success. Post-surgery, she became an accomplished model and appeared in well-known commercials and magazines such as Seventeen, Glamour, Elle, and many others. She currently resides in Los Angeles and, for decades, has been an A-list realtor to some of Hollywood's most prestigious names. She has earned the reputation of being a pack leader in Hollywood's real estate race. Her passion for swimming, which heightened after surgery, has led her to compete in other sports.
