Carla R. Herrera

Carla R. Herrera is the publisher of
40+ -- an online magazine for midlife women.

She has worked at several
newspapers over the years, often in the capacity of graphic artist, or as a
graphic consultant. Ms. Herrera has had numerous published articles in
publications throughout California as well as numerous online publications.

Her new book,
The Contemporary Woman's Guide to Midlife:
Essays and Resources for Life Transitions,
takes the reader through the transitions of midlife. It’s
an intimate portrait of a midlife woman, as well as a poignant, entertaining
and educational relation of the midlife journey.

Herrera questions, "Midlife
brings with it many things - among them, for some women, a slap across the
head! The bucket of cold water dumped on us during slumber. The metaphorical
kick in the teeth. Beauty is one of those things. We can’t help but think
about it because it’s right there in our face every day. We have to look in
that mirror every morning and if the image of the woman staring back at us
isn’t what we want, we have to question what it is we need to validate
ourselves."
