Rachel Zirkin Duda is a woman with diverse interests and abilities. After getting her bachelor's degree in theater and psychology at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County too many years ago to mention, she moved to New York City to become a professional actress, but somehow ended up becoming a graphic designer. Several years later (and many dollars poorer), she returned to the DC area and developed a part-time photography business (pun intended). In other writing news, she has penned (okay, typed) numerous theater reviews for "Theatre Bloom" magazine. She is currently living in her hometown of Greenbelt, Maryland, with her son, Seth, who is the light of her life, and her inspiration.​
Seth Duda is a college student who enjoys learning, analyzing video games, and being a free thinker. Seth likes to spend their time being perpetually in motion, usually in the more abstract, rather than the impractical physical form. Seth finds themselves constantly busy, yet is somehow often bored. Seth has a lot of questions about the world and is very curious to know the answers to questions people rarely consider; Often these answers come not from the people who are confident in their answer, but instead from the people that speculate on it themselves. This discovery has made Seth become very inquisitive and analytical of everything we know, from the widely agreed upon, to the self-explanatory. This view has made them both popular and infamous to those they meet. Seth also likes to go a step further than most, creating proverbs to explain their discoveries in a comprehensive but meaningful way; even posing solutions and challenging the status quo when it’s questionable. Seth intends to make the world better by figuring out where it has gone wrong.
Seth and I are always looking for new and exciting opportunities to talk about the book or my blog. Let's connect!
