Shirley B Novack is a first-generation daughter of Polish and Russian immigrants. She originally graduated from Fisher College in Boston with a degree in Laboratory Science, but after marrying and having three children, she went back to school and graduated from Newbury College with a degree in Interior Design. She has had a successful interior design practice since 1985, but her passion for writing was never far from the surface.
This book is loosely based on the life of her father, a Russian immigrant, who was never a wealthy or successful businessman, but taught her the importance of being humble and dignified.
She has always wanted to write this story, even though most of it is fictional, but is an homage to her father and became a labor of love.
Shirley resides in Framingham, Massachusetts with her husband, Barry, and their precious Havanese, Stevie Nicks.
