(Bio)
Mia L. McIver earned an undergraduate degree from Duke University and is looking forward to receiving her doctorate from the University of California, Irvine. 
She has lived all over the U.S. and traveled solo throughout Europe, Australia and the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, and Central and South America. Her work as a playwright has been produced in several regional theaters. She is happiest when there are books at hand and friends around the table, and there are usually plenty of both.
