You may recognize your own family, your own town.Dorothy Tresselt Victor worked as a technical writer and editor in the Publications Department of a DoD R&D laboratory at China Lake, California, for twenty years before retiring to San Rafael, California, where she lives with her husband, Andrew, and is working on her third book.
