Deborah J SkinnerDeborah J. Skinner BS: Art EducationDaemen College - Amherst, New YorkCum Laude plus 9 masters credits and Certified Art Therapist D. J. Skinner writes well-crafted narratives that reflect real-life relationships, love, loss and the resilience of theunspoken tapestry of our lives steeped in history. Her stories give voice to those truths and lets them rise to the surface in a way that connects our common journeys. She has always been fascinated by the idea of time travel and parallel universes, which she calls upon when writing middle grade fiction novels. She is currently compiling her father's posthumous memoir series, which focuses on his declassified work as an Aeronautical Innovator pioneering in hypersonic aerodynamics. Her father was internationally recognized for his development of apparatus to study molecular collisions in gases and electronic circuitry than made it possible to measure heat on the surface of space vehicles re-entering Earth's atmosphere. His RAF Journal isn't just military history; it's a bridge between three generations of service that she brings to life for her grandson who is serving in the Navy. These are the stories of a pilot who mastered the PT-17 Stearman and a scientist who helped us reach for the stars. Read More Read Less
