When she's not writing, you'll most likely find her swimming laps at Holstein Park pool, riding her bicycle around Humboldt Park or sharing an atomic sundae at Margie's Candies.Susie Inverso has now photographed three books in the 111 Places series. After spending her entire life in Chicago, she and her husband decided to relocate to Denver so they could enjoy the beauty of the mountains. When not hiking, biking, or skiing, Susie runs Crimson Cat Studios in Lakewood and loves capturing portraits of families, pets, and couples against the gorgeous backdrops that Colorado offers.
