[bctt tweet=”Rebecca Drake’s one childhood constant? A love of books, the friend that never said goodbye…”]“Born in New York City, Rebecca Drake attended nine schools over 12 years in Indiana, Ohio, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
The one constant during her peripatetic childhood? A love of books, ‘the friend that never said goodbye.’ In high school, Drake worked as a library aide for three years before getting fired for reading instead of shelving books. She also admits to being a ‘skilled liar, card cheat and a Girl Scout’ growing up.”
