Audra NiteRIF Kid

  • RIF Alum Years: 1970s

  • Now that you are grown up, what do you do? I am a radio news anchor.

  • Favorite childhood book: Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder. 

  • Favorite RIF Memory: My parents were very poor and we couldn't afford to buy books. When the "RIF Van" pulled up, I picked out a book, I think it was "The Borrowers" by Mary Norton. I wanted it so bad, but I knew we couldn't buy it, so I put it back. Then a lady came up to me and told me I could keep it. I was so happy I ran the whole block back to my house and must have read it a million times over the course of the next 5 years. I think it was one of my happiest memories of when I was little. I just couldn't believe they let me keep that book.70's


  • What do you read now? Fantasy, horror, romance, and science fiction.
