Born in Chicago to classical musician parents, Carla Iacovetti was doused into the fine arts and the world of literature at birth. She doesn’t remember a time that music, live theatre and the ballet were not a part of her life. Iacovetti’s mother was a university music professor and her father a classical symphony conductor/composer, who also taught high school orchestra for many years. Her love for literature, poetry and creative writing was highly influenced by her violinist mother, also a poet in her own right. By the time Iacovetti was in her pre-teens, a backyard children’s theatre group performed her first written play in Fresno, California.

Currently residing in the beautiful oasis, Carmel by the Sea, California, Iacovetti is the mother of two grown children. With a passion for literature and creative writing, currently she has been published as a poet in several anthologies over the last few years and currently has an original screenplay (one of six she has written) presently in revision for hopeful production.

According to Iacovetti, ‘I am passionate about words and the rhythm that they create, giving expanded meaning to the mundane or enhancing the brilliant, no matter what form they are delivered. When all is said and done, and my life is finished, there will be only one thing that remains; the memories that I have left with those that have known me and my words, whether written or spoken will be a reflection of the life I have lived’.
