rivka, I think we just double-edited and I wound up overriding your profile. The change log isn't giving me an undo link -- could you fix it again? Sorry!
Haha.. you two are TOO efficient! Where do you get the author info from? Is there a good site? I usually don't do those edits because I didn't know of a good website to get info from...
Eva, I use Google to find good sites. In this case, I mostly went with data from a publisher's site, because the bio on her official site is in first person.
Okay, thanks rivka. Maybe next time I can find it myself and not bother you guys with something simple. Thanks a lot!
I'm not used to using Wikipedia for anything so I always forget about that site. I'm going to favorite it so I see it next time. Thanks - you're both so helpful!

With most authors that's one of the first few Google hits. But yeah, it's both a good way to find the author's official site (if there is one) and to find author data.
