  <about><![CDATA[L. B.B. Ward, author, songwriter, and sculptor, was born and raised in Philadelphia. She lives along the Delaware River in Bucks County, PA and had a house for 16 years on the Delaware Bay in Cape May County, NJ.

Her closeness to the rhythms of nature and her view of what she sees as the big problems facing humanity (the children in particular) led her to create the Professor Angelicus series of adventure novels. She feels that the only true hope for coming generations is a deeper understanding of the interdependence of all living things.]]></about>  <influences><![CDATA[Kahlil Gibran, Hermann Hesse]]></influences>    <hometown>Philadelphia</hometown>  <born_at>02/24/1943</born_at>
