Nina Bruhns is an award-winning author of numerous books. She has lived and traveled all over the world, including a six-year stint in Sweden. She has two graduate degrees in archaeology (with a specialty in Egyptology), and, like her idol Indiana Jones, has been on scientific expeditions from California to Spain to Egypt and the Sudan. All this has been great fodder for her books. A native of Canada, Nina grew up in California and currently resides in beautiful Charleston, South Carolina, with her family.
