Buck, Adele: - A New Hampshire native, Adele still has card number 430 from her hometown library even though she has lived in the D.C. area for over 20 years with her fantastic husband and the requisite number of neurotic cats. Having worked as (among other things) a bookseller, a waitress, a communications manager, an actor and a stage manager, Adele's current day job is librarian at a Washington, D.C., law school.
