Diane Stiglich earned her B.A. from the University of Texas at Dallas and her M.F.A. from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University. Her paintings have been exhibited in numerous shows throughout New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Texas. She lives in Hoboken, New Jersey, where she owns the Luna Rosa Home store. She is impassioned by memory and its nuances and also by how the ordinary can appear extraordinary. Diane negotiates life between the art studio, martial arts classes, the store, the town, and home - and she likes to write about them all. "Have You Seen CindySleigh?" is her first book.
