Self-Description: I grew up as the only redhead in my family--which led to lots
of teasing from my brother, sister, and 30 non-redheaded cousins.
And the nicknames!: red, flame, pinkie, red-on-the-head,
pumpkin-head, carrot-top, and even "la peliroja" when I lived in
South America. (Talk about standing out in a crowd.....)
Now I write children's books in which many of my heroines are
redheads. Go figure.
Being a natural redhead is unique and has brought wanted--and
unwanted--attention many times. But I wouldn't want to go through
life any other way.
