Caitlin Maureen
Macdonald was born July 3, 1990, in San Diego, California. She spent her first 18 months
of life in the small German village of Horrenberg, a suburb of Dielheim, near Heidelberg,
where she spoke her first words -- "Hund" ("dog" in German) and
"bird." Though she doesn't remember it, she spent many a fine spring day at
Heidelberg Castle and riding in the kid's seat on her mom's bicycle.
A superb reader, Caitlin also loves to
write in every genre -- poetry, stories, letters, reports.
She's particularly interested in crafts and drawing, music
and singing (Celine Dion, Rolling Stones, Four Seasons, Beethoven, Britney
Spears, Backstreet Boys), physiology and science,
and spiritual questions.
She's responsible, polite, very funny,
cheerful, equally at home with adults and kids, and a phenomenal big sister to her little
brother Callum.
