Born and raised in Boulder, Donna Hope Betasso Smith attended school and holds a BA degree in journalism and advertising from the University of Colorado. Donna worked at newspapers, radio and television stations as an account executive, feature writer, columnist, talk show host and producer, respectively. The last sixteen years of her career, she operated her own advertising/PR firm. During this time she also was a part time instructor in the Department of Communication and Mass Media at the University of Wyoming. Her lifelong dream has been to write fiction. She has accomplished some of this with a weekly ?slice of life? column. One hundred of these essays were categorized and compiled in her first book. A second effort was a children's book, featuring a time-traveling feather. Now Pocketful of Parables combines fact, fiction and lots of fantasy. See less
