Biography
A third-generation South African, I immigrated to Israel aged 18, full of zeal, and married a Holocaust survivor from Germany (born Lutz Schneider). We lived for years on a farm where my husband and I raised our children, goats, and agricultural crops.
I started writing my first book six years ago, in between working and babysitting grandchildren. Still working and doing my own housework, I have 6 children, 16 grandchildren and a first great-grandchild.
I have has written two more books (unpublished as yet) and am working on the fourth. I love all animals but especially horses and cats. We have a cat, a dog and 30 chickens and live in Herzliya near Tel Aviv, Israel.
