As a child I enjoyed books and old movies and imitatively worked up my own stories both prose and in comic-book form. I was particularly fascinated by dinosaurs, too, and adopted as my first hero Roy Chapman Andrews, one-time director of the American Museum of Natural History and author of (among other things) ALL ABOUT DINOSAURS. It therefore struck me as logical that I should grow up to be a paleontologist, dig up some dinosaurs, and write books about the experience.
Yeah, me too! I loved Andrews! Now that I'm older, I've decided to use my love of biology to become a vet (which I remember every little girl wanted to be when I wanted to look at dead animals in rocks).
