Vickers, M. H.: - Margaret Heather Vickers was born in Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia, in 1962. After completing a Technical Certificate, she worked in industry for several years, before returning to university to study a Bachelor of Business, an MBA, and a PhD (with full scholarship). As Professor of Management, Margaret investigated life- and work-related trauma and adversity for workers faced with disability and chronic illness, bullying and violence, grief and loss, redundancy, or undertaking carer roles. Writing now as M.H.Vickers, Margaret draws on 25 years of witnessing trauma in organisational life. Margaret lives in Sydney and Older is her first novel.
