Ginger Reno has always been a writer—it just took a while for her to figure that out. Her first clue should’ve been her family always calling her “the wordy one.” An enrolled citizen of the Cherokee Nation, her desire to learn about Cherokee history and culture has naturally spilled over into her writing. "Find Her," her debut, is part of that journey. Ginger lives in northeast Oklahoma, within the Cherokee Nation, and spends a lot of lakefront porch time with her two favorite people—her husband and their German shepherd.
