Autorenporträt
Shari comes from a long line of renegades beginning with her family fleeing from France to Quebec in the 16th century. Moving west, they had the first white child born in Saskatchewan and in Alberta. The Nault connection to Native people was a major factor in the 1885 Northwest Resistance in Canada. Louis Riel, the leader of the Metis (mixed blood) people, was a cousin of her grandfather. The Rebellion started on her great/grandfather's farm. Shari's father was a hunter/photographer in Alaska. She joined him in Kodiak after the big quake living in a skid-shack with a 10-month old baby and no running water. Shari served as the first Montana Cultural Indian Tourism Specialist. She served as PR director for both the Charlie Russell Museum and the Buffalo Bill Historical Center. She now lives in Fromberg, MT, (pop. 444) with husband David, 4 chickens, 2 Lop rabbits, kittens, 2 Shih Tzu and a couple of Pygmy goats. Two more novels are in the works.
