In 1981, she received an art scholarship to the University of Iowa where she worked toward a BFA in printmaking. After college, she gravitated to watercolor-a medium she still uses today. She recalls a childhood divided between two passions-an insatiable love of reading and a profound fascination for the natural world. These early interests are the foundation for her paintings of whimsical creatures and their antics; the intent is to elicit a smile or evoke a story. Maggie resides in Chattanooga, TN with her husband and the animals who frequently are her models.

In spare hours, she volunteered as a sous chef at a local cooking school, gleaning technique and scouring cookbooks for the life stories they held. While raising her young family, Susan freelanced as a food writer and food stylist for a large East Coast newspaper-later progressing in her writing from mousse to mice! The author and her husband divide their time between the Florida Keys and a coastal NJ town where she recently escorted a wayfaring group of mice to safety from her kitchen during a cold snap. Susan is the author of two books in the Chester Midshipmouse series.
