Katherine Rawson is a parrot lover, writer, and teacher. She was inspired to write
If You Were a Parrot while watching her pet parrot Shadow, a small green parrot with a big personality. When Katherine isn’t playing with parrots, reading about them, or writing about them, she works as a freelance writer. She worked for many years as a teacher of English as a Second Language, teaching students of all ages from kindergarten through college. After many years of city living, Katherine and Shadow have recently returned to life in the country, where they enjoy taking walks through the woods and watching the “outside” birds.
