Brenda Johnson

Growing up  on a farm in southern Alberta, Brenda Johnson developed the array of interests  that lead her to study Leisure and Recreation at the University of Lethbridge  and law at the University of Calgary. Although she worked in parks departments and  practised law for over twenty years, her first love is writing. She has published  professional articles in journals, including Canadian Bar Association  publications, Alberta Doctor’s Digest,  and Canadian Health Law Journal. Her poetry  has been published by the Spring Pulse Poetry Festival. Brenda is a graduate of the Humber School for Writers, where she was mentored by award-winning author  Tim Wynne-Jones and recommended for a Letter of Distinction.
Brenda’s  childhood was rife with stories of her famous cowbograndfather,
Wildhorse  Jack, but she always wondered about her grandmother. Researching her roots in  France, Brenda unearthed the family history that informs her first historical  young adult novel, Gabbi’s Way.
