Connie Archer was born and grew up in New England, ice skating on neighborhood ponds, clamming on the beach at Cape Cod and skiing in Vermont. As a schoolgirl, she spent several years wading through Caesarβs Gallic War journals and the twelve books of the Aeneid. During her summers she performed in a childrenβs theater troupe that traveled the suburbs of Boston, mounting productions in parks and childrenβs hospitals. After majoring in biology in college, she did an about face and earned a degree in English literature. Since then sheβs worked at many different jobs β laboratory technician, cocktail waitress, medical secretary, and dinner theatre actress, to name just a few.
Connie lives in Los Angeles with her family and a cat named Basil.
