Vesna Hermann has always had a passion and flare for reading and writing. Her past had always haunted her, and to some degree, controlled her. It wasn't until she had her near-death experience that she decided a change in her life needed to be made for the better of herself and her family. Born and raised on Bosnian soil, her family never had much more than the basic necessities to live. The war took what little they had, even claiming the life of her father in 1993 and their house two years later. With no where left to go, they fled to Vojnic, Croatia, where they found shelter for two years. During their time in Croatia they were informed of American sponsors. From there they spoke to an agency about moving to America, the land of the free. Finally, they were sponsored by a Mr. & Mrs. Wemple, who taught them to speak English, helped them find jobs, helped them to seek medical care and anything else they needed. Vesna found a job at a movie theater where she met the love of her life and adored husband of 6 years, Michael Hermann. They now reside in Jacksonville, North Carolina due to Michael loyally defending his country, serving in the United States Marine Corps. Together they have two gorgeous children, Bryan and Helene. It was during Michale's second deployment that she started constructing the book Born in Hell, which she found to be very therapeutic.
