About the Author

Priscilla Kohutek is a native Texan, a prolific writer, and a published author. She holds degrees in History and Government and has a solid background in English, literature, and politics. Her life is rich with unusual experiences, having spent 25 years living and writing in the Far East where her nonfiction works appeared regularly in major magazines and leading newspapers. Priscilla also was the managing editor of an important cultural magazine, a radio talk show host, and a frequent guest on television shows. Her "Ask Priscilla" lifestyle and decorating column ran continuously for 20 years in magazines and newspapers in three countries until she shifted gears to focus exclusively on Olivia Garza's extraordinary story. Priscilla and her husband, Ed, live in San Antonio and are involved in numerous local and national charitable organizations. When not writing, volunteering, or enjoying family time, they are probably at a cat show, exhibiting their two award-winning British Shorthairs, Professor Higgins and Lord Chesterfield. Otherwise, they're traveling the world in search of another adventure.
