Tricia Walsh is a controversial, outspoken, vivacious woman who lives her life with passion and zest. She is an indomitable spirit who fights for what's right and just. She has been ostracized by some, parodied by others and turned into a martyr of sorts for divorced women everywhere. Tricia's reaction? "Good, someone finally has to take a stand!" She both reviled and applauded worldwide.
Tricia is of British heritage, but was born in Gutersloh, Germany, on March 24 under the sign of Aries, The Warrior!
Her father was in the Royal Air Force so as a child she traveled the world. Every two to three years clothes and toys were packed into a wooden crate and sent on to the next Walsh abode. At the age of 12 Trica returned to the UK with her mother and two brothers, following her father's death in Germany.
As a writer, Tricia's first play was "Bonkers" which premiered at The Man in the Moon Theatre to huge critical acclaim before touring the UK. Tricia followed up with "The Thong."
Her trilogy, "Addictions," has been used at a number of benefit readings to raise awareness and generate charitable giving to support people suffering from alcohol and drug addiction.
Tricia's latest works, "The Last Journey" and "Change the Day", will have their first stage productions in 2009. In addition to her works for the stage, Tricia has completed her first novel, The Devil's Hostage, which is now being adapted for television.
Tricia has helped to support a number of charities and organizations over the years. Recently, she has turned her focus toward raising money to help rehabilitation efforts for addicts and to support The Wounded Warrior Project, an organization focused on helping the young men and women wounded in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Tricia has one son, Jamie.
