Flo Fitzpatrick was born in Washington D.C., then became a world traveler while still in diapers. An Army brat, Flo lived in Virginia, Georgia and a castle in France, all before she hit five. Her first authored work (age four) was science-fiction piece, "The Bug on the Wall." It consisted of two sentences. "There was a bug. It was on the wall." When she was eight, she went full-tilt boogie and wrote three chapters for what was intended to be a complete novel entitled, "The Skinner Family Goes to Ireland." The plot consisted of the Skinner family heading to Ireland to visit their Aunt Donna who lived on a potato farm and owned a swimming pool. Flo's older brothers, twins, were somewhat skeptical that the Skinners would make it to Ireland via train from New York City across the Atlantic. Her next book (age nine) was more realistic. "The Mystery of the Greenhouse" was written while she was living in El Paso, so the greenhouse setting might have been a buffer against all the tumbleweeds. Sadly, this masterpiece was lost somewhere in transition and travel over the years. Flo earned a B.F. A. in Dance and an M.A. in Theatre, then spent her years after college shuttling back and forth from Texas to New York performing, teaching and choreographing. During her career in theatre, Flo has played nice ladies (Nellie-South Pacific), not-so-nice ladies (Lily St. Regis-Annie) and dead ladies who weren't very ladylike (three murdered hookers in melodrama Jack the Ripper) The last, she claims, was tough. She spent the first ten minutes of the show "dead", lying on the floor trying not to breathe - or wince from paper wads thrown by enthusiastic audiences. One of her favorite theatrical experiences was playing a variety of characters (bag ladies and Cyndi Lauper-styled tourists) for the Japanese language show NY-Go! which aired on Manhattan cable stations. Flo's second novel with Kensington, "Hot Stuff", was the recipient of the Four and Half Star Gold review from RT Reviews and nominated for Best Romantic Suspense of 2005 and has been optioned for film. Currently, she is contracted with The Wild Rose Press. Flo's time travel Paris Nocturne is set to release in March of 2025. She's under contract for time travel Remake the Song, which sends a dancer back to New York City, circa 1975. Flo moved to Alabama in 2013. She sang with jazz band The Usual Suspects until Covid and a few moves by band members put a stop to performances. Dancing is now limited to the living room...which she admits gets tricky trying to avoid the dog while doing turns.
