Life and career
McDonald was born February 28, 1959, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to John and Mary Louise McDonald. The youngest of five girls, she was (having been her inspiration for The Sister's Club) awarded a B.A. from Oberlin College in 1981 and an M.L.S. from University of Pittsburgh in 1985.
McDonald began her career as a children's librarian, working at Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Minneapolis Public Library and Adams Memorial Library in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. Her first book, Is This a House for Hermit Crab?, came as a result of patrons asking her where to find a story she had told at a library.[1]
McDonald is married to Richard Haynes and lives in Sebastopol, California.
