Born and raised in gorgeous Northern New York State, Frieda Toth's 007 journey began when she was reading a Bond novel and realized it took place mere feet from where she sat reading it. Frieda is now globally recognized as the authority on the Fleming novel The Spy Who Loved Me. She has traveled to Bond locations around the world, even recreating a Bond-girl adventure on a vintage motor scooter. A regular contributor to Artistic Licence [sic] Renewed and a frequent presenter at South Atlantic Modern Language Association, she specializes examining Bond from a feminist perspective.
