Answer 1

Your local library should have a set of reference books called Contemporary Authors. Try there. They may have it in electronic form, too, and you may be able to use your library card to access it.

Also, search magazine and journal databases. She may have been interviewed in a magazine, and that may answer some of your questions.

Check the publisher's website. Some have author bios, too.
