Author Mary Shaw knows a thing or two about hockey -her husband is former professional player, now turned coach, Brad Shaw. Mary is a Waterloo, Ontario native but spends summers at her cottage outside of Ottawa. Because of hockey, Mary and her family have lived in Italy, Hartford, Ottawa, Detroit, Tampa, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and currently, Columbus. Mary is a mother of three - Taylore, Brady and Caroline. She credits them - and their sporting adventures, for swaying her into writing children’s books. Her son, Brady, an avid hockey player, is the inspiration for BRADY BRADY. Her oldest, Taylore, is the inspiration for ‘Tes’ in the ‘Twirling Torpedo’. In addition to writing, Mary is an active volunteer in the animal rescue community.
