Lisa moved with her husband and family to Sewickley from New Jersey in 2006. Originally from California, she grew up overseas and has traveled extensively. Continuing to learn about other places and cultures is one of the reasons she loves reading, and, being a recent empty-nester, she is very excited to be spending her free time surrounded by all of the great books and people at the Penguin. If she had to choose a favorite book genre, it would probably be fiction, but biographies and history rank highly too!
