Susan Bria grew up in Waterbury, and completed a BA, MA and a Sixth Year Certificate in Educational Administration at the University of Connecticut. A dedicated teacher, she taught English at Naugatuck High School for 35 years. She attributes her desire to become an English teacher to having a teacher in high school who taught her to see the relevance between literature and life. She retired in 1998 to devote time to writing, travel and other interests. Ultimately it is a book about loving one another, survival and spiritual and emotional growth.
