Ann Leary

Ann was born on August 14, 1962 in Syracuse, New York. She then moved to different states with her family, living in Maryland, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. When she was fourteen years old they moved to Marblehead, Massachusetts. All of the moving meant that she made friends, but the friendships tended to be short lived. So Ann read books and became fascinated by them, especially books that were about animals.
