Busbee, Shirlee: - "New York Times bestselling author Shirlee Busbee is celebrating over 50 years of marriage to her husband Howard, and looking forward to another 50. Together, they live in Mendocino County, California, with three Miniature Schnauzers (Shirlee wants a fourth but Howard thinks two is enough - ah, drama ahead) and a herd of American Shetland Ponies."
