Adrienne King grew up in Corner Brook, but dashed off to Toronto while the ink was still drying on her high school diploma. She studied Journalism at Ryerson and is grateful the term renaissance made a comeback. She worked as a dog groomer, waitress, town councilor, in the film business, in the alternative health care business, for an art dealer, as a computer tech and also as a journalist. She finds her most intriguing ideas when no one knows she’s looking.
