Liz Albertson worked as an editor for Frommer s Travel Guides for four years before making the leap to the other side of the computer as the author of Ireland For Dummies. When she isn t researching and writing, Liz spends much of her time in Ireland sitting in on traditional music sessions, fiddle in hand. During the school year, Liz teaches middle school Science and English in New York City, where she lives with her husband, Hugh, and her adopted African cichlid fish, Rocky. Liz welcomes feedback and suggestions for the next edition of the book at ejalbertson@yahoo.com
