LISA B. DIAMOND

According to her website: "Lisa B. Diamond has written everything from poetry, PR snippets, children’s stories, young adult novels, mysteries, spy thrillers, romances, cookbooks, and plays, beginning from elementary school onward.

She has a habit of spending time researching every project and making copious notes for reference materials. For her spy thrillers, she researched every secret agency she mentioned in the book, as well as personally visited most of the different locations the actions took place.

Her hobbies include reading, cooking, traveling, and needlepoint. She writes to keep her sanity while raising two children with her husband and their non-Miniature Schnauzer in Georgia."
