| Biography: | If asked, Miss LoForti would say that a driving passion and theme that has woven its way throughout her life is the love of a good story. It propelled her to become an avid reader who turned a pastime into a profession by obtaining a Bachelor's degree in English from The Master's University and a Master's degree in English while teaching English Composition at Liberty University as a Graduate Student Assistant. Her expertise and passion lies mainly in ancient and 19th century Literature, but authors such as Shakespeare, Jane Austen, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R Tolkien, Agatha Christie, and F. Scott Fitzgerald have compelled her to make exceptions on their behalf. As the proud daughter of an air force pilot, she quickly developed a love for traveling, which has led her to explore various cultures and locales, such as Italy, Germany, France, and Israel. Therefore, if she is not reading or traveling, she can be found enjoying the thrill of the theater, time with family and friends, or a cinema classic. |
