A native of England...

...and a naturalized United States citizen, Bridget Huckabee, uses the Queen’s English with a nod to the idioms of her adopted country. In other words, she spells like an American.

Bridget Huckabee was educated in an English girls’ school. For eleven years she toured the world as a professional ice skater. Her wardrobe trunk always held notebooks recording her experiences as she traveled. After a second career as a wife and mother, she began writing her memoirs, Traveling Home, and completed five short novels. Her third career began as a writer for Journal Communications of Tennessee with assignments that included articles on art, business, science and education. She is now completing the second volume of her memoirs, Traveling Alone.
