Autorenporträt

Mary writes fiction for both adults and children. Unfamiliar Territory, a story of one woman's journey through Gold Rush California, is her second work of historical fiction. Her debut novel, In This Land of Plenty--a family saga set against the backdrop of California history--was popular with book clubs and earned multiple awards, including the 2021 Fiction Book of the Year from BiblioLab's Indie Author Project (California), and a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal for Western Fiction. She also has published a collection of contemporary short stories, Fertile Soil: Stories of the California Dream, and a bilingual children's picture book series, Tropical Tales. Before dedicating herself to writing, Mary had a fulfilling career in California public education, serving as a teacher, administrator, teacher trainer, grant writer, and educational entrepreneur. She played a key role in founding three education companies and a public charter school. She now divides her time between California's Monterey Peninsula and Costa Rica's Pacific Coast, where she continues the Castro/Brennan family saga and expands the Tropical Tales picture book series.
