Award Winning Memoir Author Sandra SchnakenburgI grew up in Barrington, Illinois. After earning a B.S. in Finance at Arizona State University and an MBA from the University of Southern California, she settled with her husband, Karl, in Singapore, then Australia — where their twins, Kyle and Alexis, were born. After moving back to the United States, the family lived in The Woodlands, Texas, where Karl and she raised their family. During that time, Sandra worked on and off in corporate finance until she took up the love of writing. A philosophy of curiosity and a promise led her to write her first Memoir, The Housekeeper’s Secret - a personal story to fulfill her family’s housekeeper’s dying wish. In the process, she grew fascinated by the mechanics of storytelling and the power it holds, connecting family through the generations.

After interviewing Sandra, I read her book and found the true story of her family and her housekeeper's life absorbing and so moving! What a great book.
