Loretta Enright is the pen name of a journalist living just north of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. Her writing career began in second grade when she became bored with Dick and Jane in the reading books and started writing her own stories. There is a yet-unpublished novel about a girl rock band breaking out in the 1960s; it was clandestinely circulated at the high school thus avoiding censure of the nuns in charge. Journalism was a natural career choice (BA, University of Minnesota) and she spent years writing and editing for the Catholic press as well as overseeing magazine production for a private foundation. Currently she is a freelance book editor. Medical matters have always been a side interest for her and more than one physician she encountered urged her to trade her pen for a stethoscope and go to medical school. Loretta and her husband have six grown children and nine grandchildren
