She was raised in New York State but moved to the South and graduated from Massey Business College. Frieda began her writing career twenty years ago and is an author of two books. Her memoir is entitled Born Three Times. Frieda and her husband have published his life story, Chasing a Whirlwind. Her blog entitled “Two Late Bloomers” inspires people to discard the stereotypes of the senior adult years. She enjoys her role as wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother to six adorable little ones. She loves collecting cranberry glass. Frieda’s inspiring story, “Three Amazing Gifts and a Second Chance at Life”, covers a 20-year period of trials that tested her and how her life changed despite overwhelming odds.
