Samantha grew up on the East coast where she attended law school. After living and working in the Midwest, she and her family now live in the Pacific Northwest where she heads outside whenever the sun shines. Her debut children's picture book, "Before You Were Here, Mi Amor" is a bilingual children's picture book concerning all the things that one family does to welcome a new child into the world. The story evokes the warmth and community of family life through the acts of each member of la familia – mother, father, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, grandmother, and grandfather. Spanish words are woven throughout the English text and there is a glossary at the book’s end. Her second children's book, "The Cazuela That the Farm Maiden Stirred” will be published by Charlesbridge (Fall 2010) and illustrated by Rafael López. Samantha is represented by the Andrea Brown Literary Agency.
