Welcome, Amanda!

There was a delicate sound reverberating through the crime-fiction blogosphere today. All of of us standing together and sending a warm welcome out to Amanda Montgomery, the new daughter of critic David Montgomery.

Congratulations, David and Maili!

Amanda shares her birthday--July 20--with some other noteworthy women, including Scout Larue Willis (daughter of Bruce and Demi, 1991), Julia Syriani, Miss Universe-Lebanon 1996 (born 1977), marathoner Jenny Spangler (born 1963), actress Donna Dixon, aka “Mrs. Dan Akroyd” (1957), singer Kim “Betty Davis Eyes” Carnes (1946), Dinner Party artist Judy Chicago (1939), actress Natalie Wood (1938), U.S. Senator Barbara Mikulski (1936), British historian Cicely Veronica Wedgwood, (1910) and silent-film-era sex symbol Theda Bara (1890).

Happy birthday, Amanda, and thanks to Brainy History for the dates.
