Piper Peters Aheron

Piper Peters Aheron (pronounced A-hair-on) is from the noisy, creative communication industries. She's written copy for businesses, ad agencies and public relations firms including songs and jingles. She's worked in television and in radio. She's also held staff positions in public schools, appeared as an extra in Hollywood movies, and served in the U.S. Congress. She's always looking for the next adventure in literature or reality.

Presently, Piper is the author of 7 non-fictions. Bits and pieces of her work are featured in the compilation North Carolina: Unforgettable Vintage Images of the Tar Heel State (Arcadia. ISBN 0-7385-0749-0. Hardcover). She continues to write for magazines and trades from her office near Charlotte, NC.

She's a poor gardener, an award-winning artist, a wanna-be photographer, a has-been dancer, a tedious researcher, and an entertaining lecturer. Some of her more popular book projects include the following:
