Tarno Greene was born and raised in New York City and on Long Island, New York. Her childhood in a Jewish household included a brother and three sisters. Educated at the University of Denver, she developed an appreciation of reading and literature. She moved to New Mexico, Arkansas, New Hampshire, and Florida. Later she danced and roller skated in New York City for twenty-one years. Her entrepreneurial spirit led her to pursue cosmetology. A small business, House Calls for Hair, exposed Tarno to an invisible population of the homebound, bed-bound and hospital-bound. A complete education in humanity resulted from the graceless to the gracious. Tarno also felt called to write but wondered whether she could develop convincing characters for a novel. This was never tested or resolved. Then a need to write about ways to hope and cope with brain trauma, dementia, and PTSD made it clear that character development was moot. Many of the people in I'm Inside, Y'Â?Know could be from Central Casting. Enjoy this first endeavor! Tarno has a son, an architect, and resides in Florence on the Oregon coast.
