Nanci Turner Steveson grew up in Connecticut, England, and Texas, always with a book in one hand, the reins of a pony in the other. She works as a riding instructor and as a stage manager with the Off Square Theatre Company. She is also the founder of The Literacy for Hope Project, dedicated to getting books into the hands of the homeless. Nanci lives in Jackson Hole, WY, with her Arabian horse and rescue dog. SWING SIDEWAYS was her first book. This is her third.
