D. K. Christi is the pen name for an educator/administrator well-known in several states and the community for her work with those who need a louder voice for upward economic mobility. The references to Puerto Rico were reviewed by Nancy Iacovone, counselor at Immokalee Career Center/Bethune Education Center, and the author’s photograph is by Nancy’s niece, Shaina Tatro. The author has been active in serving Lee, Charlotte, Collier, Glades and Hendry counties since the 1980s. She was a founding member for the Community Foundation of Collier County and former president of the Immokalee Inter-Agency Council. Local readers may recognize similarities between their community and the fiction account of the heroine’s experiences; however, the author draws from many Florida counties in which she has lived and worked or conducted research, including both coasts and northern Florida.
