del Monte, Joan

Writer, teacher, and entrepreneur, Joan Del Monte was a featured author during a Museum of Contemporary Art Show in Washington, D.C in 2007. She wrote an antiques' bibliography for the Los Angeles Public Library and taught a college course in mystery writing. When she is not rowing her boat through the Venice Canals where she lives, Joan indulges her passion for Italian cooking, aiding the Friends of the Venice Library, which she founded, or travelling to Humbolt where she finds inspiration for her writing.
