Tracy Cavelli was born and raised in the great state of Ohio in an Italian family. Her grandparents arrived from Italy by boat at Ellis Island to become American citizens. Her father, Armando Alfredo Cavelli, was a fabulous storyteller, weaving fantastical tales of far-off lands, animals that came to life and spoke, as well as fairies, witches, and princesses trapped in dungeons and towers. He even told stories of wolverines that lived in the forest, most of which were inspired by his favorite magazine, “Field and Stream,” to which he added his own imaginative flair.
