Expand description
From her father's rich Peruvian family, Marie Arana learned to be seen and not heard. From her mother's cowboy father she learned to shoot a gun and break a horse. As a child she shuttled between two very different cultures. But when she moved to the U.S. for good, she had to come to terms with an identity split in half, and find a new self-image that made her feel whole; a New World fusion -- an American Chica.
