Olivia Sumner

Jane Jamison was born on 1926 in Los Angeles, California, USA. When she was nine months old, her parents, Frances and James K. Jamison, both teachers, took her to Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where she grew up. She had moved from upstate New York to Carson City, Nevada--the result of falling in love with Mr. Toombs, a Nevadan. She returned "home" to live in the beautiful Upper Peninsula on the shore of Lake Superior--with the Viking from her past. She wrote in various romance genres--gothic, suspense, contemporary, historical, Regency and paranormal--as well as other genres such as mystery, fantasy and horror. Jane used pseudonyms: Diana Stuart, Rebecca Drury, Lee Willoughby Davis, Ellen Jamison, Olivia Sumner--but also wrote under her own name, Jane Toombs, except for her historical romances for which she used Jane Anderson. She died in Michigan in 2014.
