Author Information

Julie was born in Adelaide, South Australia, started ballet classes as a young child and began dancing professionally at the age of sixteen. Performing in musicals and variety shows led to touring nationally and internationally in a showgirl troupe. In between contracts she danced at cabarets, nightclubs, restaurants and private functions, and included traditional flamenco and belly dancing in her repertoire. After retiring from full-time performing at thirty, she took up ice dance for pleasure and discovered a new career path in ballroom dancing. She taught ballroom and Latin dance for studios and colleges in Sydney, Brisbane and Germany and ran her own studio in Sydney for nearly twenty years. Now retired and a widow, she lives in Sydney with her two Siamese cats and is busy pursuing her other passions of gourmet cooking, creating artisan gold and silver jewellery, gemstone cutting and polishing, drawing and painting.
