Boo Heisey

Boo Heisey (AKA BooH), published author, humorist, illustrator, and photographer, maintains a secretive existence, never giving interviews nor attending book signings or author events. A prolific artist, her work has appeared in more than 200 publications. BooH is also the creator of Willowby, the wise-ass worm cartoon of The Worm Turns fame. He can be seen on Facebook under Willowby Worm. It is said Heisey lives in the mountains of Northern California and is working on her second book in the Tracy McCambridge series, Peppered by Reason.

As a civilian, she lived for several months in Saigon at the height of the war and was the only American female teenager to do so. It is not known what she was doing there.

When once asked what she'd like to have with her if stranded on a deserted island, she asked for a dictionary and a few blank books for when rescued she'd have learned the dictionary and written enough to later buy the island.

Her love of deserted islands came from living aboard a sailboat for three months while sailing the Great Barrier Reef from Brisbane to Cairns, back in the day when islands were uninhabited.

Heisey also owns and operates Storyboard Entertainment.
