Autorenporträt
Roberta Ames was born in 1931, the youngest of five children of George and Ida Ames. She lived and worked on the Ames Farm until she was 26, the last five of those years together with her husband, Victor. After leaving the farm, Roberta was employed in a variety of capacities until 1972, when she became an administrator in the Lincoln County Sheriff's office in Wiscasset and resumed her education at the University of Maine in Augusta. There, she took evening courses until she graduated in 1975 with an Associate's Degree in Criminal Justice. Having since retired, she makes her home in Nobleboro, Maine.
