About Me
The Official Bio:
Clare Frank served as the State of California’s first female Chief of Fire Protection. She began firefighting at age 17 and worked her way through the ranks, handling fire and rescue emergencies and major disasters in both urban and rural settings. Along the way, she earned a spot on an elite state command team, a bachelor’s in fire command, a law degree, a master’s in creative writing, and several leadership awards. Now, she brings humor and candor to her stories about first responders, lawyers, and life, and is on the faculty for UNR-at-Tahoe's masters program for creative writing. Burnt: A Memoir of Fighting Fire is Clare's highly acclaimed debut and has been featured in the New York Times, New York Post, San Francisco Chronicle, CNN Opinion, Shondaland, FireRescue1, and others. Clare is already working on her second book. She lives near Lake Tahoe with her husband and always a dog or two.

My Current Top 3 Decrees:
~ It's totally okay to have chocolate, and only chocolate, for breakfast—but please don't bring that weak-ass milk chocolate crap.
~ Dogs are God's best work. I say this as mine unearths our landscaping drip system.
~ I have time for social media or a pickleball addiction. I choose pickleball.
