Gibbens finds dream job writing romance novels

It took Dee Gibbens 60 years to start her dream job as a romance author.

Born Sarah Dianne Walters Gibbens in New Orleans in 1947, adopted at three months of age, and raised in Richland Parish, she’s done a little of everything along the way.

An admitted daddy’s girl, she was the chosen daughter of the late Reuben Walters who owned Planters Feed and Seed and Lou Walters who was active in many civic clubs and the Rayville Garden Club. Her brother, Lonnie, was involved in publishing in the 1980s, publishing five newspapers and magazines.
