Loretta Chase

Loretta Chase holds a B.A. from Clark University, where she majored in English and minored unofficially in visual art. Her job history includes clerical, administrative, and part-time teaching posts at Clark; stints with jewelry and clothing retailers; and a Dickensian six-month experience as a meter maid. In the course of moonlighting as a corporate video scriptwriter, she fell under the spell of a producer who lured her into writing novels...and marrying him. The books resulting from this union have won a number of awards, including the Romance Writers of America's Rita.
