Mary Lopez

Singer, Actress, Soldier, Performing Artist, Educator... lived all over the world. I was a pistol. Then Parkinson's Disease hit. Robbed of my passion fed skills, on the ledge and ready to leap, a former student yanked me back and convinced me that I have a fearless, original voice and decadent stories others would be afraid to tell. I lived them, and frankly, am surprised to have survived the wild rides to share them with you. So, I reinvented myself as an author. Look for Sneaker Wave, son of The Practice Room. I may have changed your name, but you are still there with me in my adventures. You'll recognize yourself. So glad I didn't jump, for we are having a blast.
