MORE AUCTION NEWS...
Jenna Black got her BA in physical anthropology and French from Duke University. Once upon a
time, she dreamed she would be the next Jane Goodall, camping in the bush making fabulous
discoveries about primate behavior. Then, during her senior year at Duke, she did some actual
research in the field and made this shocking discovery: primates spend something like eighty percent of their time doing such exciting things as sleeping and eating. Concluding that this discovery was her life's work in the field of primatology, she then moved on to such varied pastimes as
grooming dogs and writing technical documentation. She is now a full-time writer. Replica, the
first book in her new dystopian young adult trilogy, was awarded a ―perfect 10‖ by VOYA Magazine. The second book, Resistance, was released in March, and the final book, Revolution, will be released in November.
Jenna writes: "All the women on my mother’s side of the family—including my grandmother, mother, and three aunts—
have suffered from diabetes. This winter, the disease took the life of one of those aunts. I have always been a supporter of
the Brenda Novak Auction, but this year I am sponsoring the auction in memory of my dear aunt, Merle Arnold Clark."
