Barbara L. Clanton is a native New Yorker who left those “New York minutes” for the slower-paced palm-tree-filled life in Orlando, Florida. While still in school she played any sport she could find: softball, volleyball, basketball, and field hockey. During high school, she could even be found in the upstairs gym playing team handball with her friends. She played softball at Princeton and was the captain her senior year. She currently teaches mathematics at a college preparatory school in the Orlando area and has coached both softball and basketball in both New York and Florida. She still plays softball, but has picked up a new hobby! “Dr. Barb” plays bass guitar in a pop-rock band called The Flounders. Her writing credits so far include two young adult novels from Regal Crest Enterprises, LLC. Out of Left Field: Marlee’s Story and Art for Art’s Sake: Meredith’s Story.
