Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

France is like a second home to Darwin Porter, a native of North Carolina, and Danforth Prince, of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Both of these writers know their destination well, as they've made many annual trips through France since Prince worked for the Paris bureau of the New York Times and renovated part of a 14th-century chateau in the Loire Valley. Porter, a former bureau chief for the Miami Herald and a survivor of a successful career in TV advertising, is the author of the definitive upcoming biography The Secret Life of Humphrey Bogart (1899-1931), which has been praised for its fine behind-the scenes depiction of Hollywood at the dawn of the talkies. As one critic said, "At last, Darwin Porter reveals what was really under that trenchcoat." Jointly, Porter and Prince are the coauthors of many Frommer guides, including Frommer's France, Frommer's Paris, and Frommer's Provence & the Riviera. Cheryl A. Pientka is a freelance journalist and literary scout. She's the author of both editions of Paris For Dummies and coauthor of Frommer's Europe from USD70 a Day. A graduate of Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism and the University of Delaware, she lives in New York when she can't be in Paris. Outside of her writing and professional career, she supports her pet causes: the Animal Haven shelter in Flushing, New York, and strayfromtheheart.org in New York City.
