Suzanne Tucker

I am a graduate of the University of
Minnesota with a degree in Elementary
Education. I continued my education at
the Minneapolis School of Art and
Design planning for a career as an Art
teacher. The Commercial Art field
called my name and I have been working
in the printing and publishing industry
for the past 28 years.
I have been married to a detective
on the Minneapolis Police Department for
30 years. We both love to read, travel
and play with our bulldog, Buster. I
also love to flower garden, play the
piano and cook. I'm trying to learn how
to quilt but, oh boy, am I a beginner!
I have found that being a reviewer
is a very challenging and rewarding
experience. It is such fun hearing from
so many generous authors who appreciate
what we do for them. Penning a
beautiful story is a gift. Reading
that story is a pleasure (one of my
greatest).
Thanks to Sue at OLD BOOK BARN for
giving me the opportunity so many years
ago, and Tanzey, editor of OLD BOOK
BARN GAZETTE for her expertise and
support.
HAPPY READING from Su!
