They sailed for two years, crossing the Atlantic, island hopping in the Caribbean and then making their way through the Panama Canal, up the coast of Mexico to San Diego, California. Once they had settled down in San Diego, Diane's family founded an ostrich ranch located near the San Diego Wild Animal Park where Diane used to entertain tourists as an ostrich jockey.

She loves long distance paddle boarding, scuba diving, traveling and has been known to disappear for days when reading a good book. Diane regularly performs with her improv troupe at the Off Broadway theater in Vista, California and is the author of the children's book, Mommy Says You Are What You Eat. Diane lives near Los Angeles with her husband, two children and a menagerie of animals. Show less «
