The youngest of five siblings to a French Canadian father and a Mexican American mother, Mary is inspired by the drive & creativity of her grandmother, children’s writer Bernadette Rajotte, composer of A Child’s Christmas Prayer, and Young Hearts, which are a part of the National Library of Canada.
