Libby Carty McNamee is an author, speaker, lawyer, and a US Army Veteran. Her second novel, “Dolley Madison and the War of 1812” published on August 24, 2021, the 207th anniversary of the burning of Washington City. The Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards named it Best Book in US Historical Fiction in the fall of 2021.

"Susanna’s Midnight Ride:The Girl Who Won the Revolutionary War" is her first published novel in the series. When a descendant told her about Susanna Bolling’s heroism, Libby was determined to share Susanna’s story with the world. The 2020 Independent Publisher Book Awards ("IPPY AWARDS) named it #1 in Juvenile Fiction. In addition, the 2020 Pinnacle Book Achievement Awards also named it #1 in Juvenile Fiction, and a Finalist in Historical Fiction by the Best Book Awards.

In 2019, the Virginia General Assembly unanimously created “Susanna Bolling Day” on December 5, which is Susanna's birthday, based upon Libby’s research.
