A Tucson based author (nicknamed English Cathy). I have written and published one book. I volunteer within the Irish community.

"Finding Frances...Love Letters from a Flight Lieutenant". The true story of my Uncle Eric, a Royal Air Force Pilot who traveled to American in 1942 to train as a Spitfire pilot. While there he fell in love with 17 year old Frances McKenzie (he was 18) and upon his return to England he flew iconic Spitfires and Typhoons, all the time writing to Frances. Several years ago she gave me all his love letters which were so beautiful that I decided to write this book.
