Extensive experience as an admin, writer, and paralegal, along with a sense of humor, helps Laurie accomplish the wide variety of tasks this always interesting, no-two-days-the-same position entails. By night (when not fighting crime), she retreats to the empty nest she and her husband share with their cat, Opie, and dog, Ernest T. Bass, and tries to come up with a plot for the next Great American Novel. Laurie also loves reading, Broadway musicals, and the Chicago Blackhawks, but her favorite pastime by far is spoiling her six grandchildren.
