作者介紹
作者介紹 Marcy is a musician, songwriter, author, and cancer advocate. She balances a need for solitude with her joy in sharing music and serving others; this book, A Baker's Daughter, allowed her to serve her ancestors by telling a story they could not tell for themselves--along with celebrating her father. Her music audience, many of whom also were fans of the family bakery, have been thrilled to bring his recipes into their own homes. A 2008 documentary film of Marcy's inspirational cancer-survival story, entitled Dead Girl Walking--made by Ray Schmitt of Real Earth Productions--won the Amazing Grace Award at Toronto's BreastFest Film Festival, among other honors at various festivals and events. Marcy has written, recorded, and published three original music CDs: Home To Me, Another Year Blooms, and My Live Oak. Kristin (Marcy calls her Krissy) comes by her profession because she fledged from a family tree populated by writers, from both branches of the maternal line. She has spent her career as a freelance writer, authoring or coauthoring several books--including Rex Appeal, the source material for the 2014 Emmy(R)-winning documentary Dinosaur 13, a film she assisted during production. She also owns an independent publishing company called Rockin' Dog Studio, and writes, researches, and or edits for other authors, as well as for television, film, and giant-screen projects. She adores Chocolate Top Cookies.
