B.D. Salerno was born in New Jersey under the zodiac sign Libra. From an early age she was fascinated by the stars and planets and was taught the night sky by her father, an Air Force flight officer, who navigated by the stars when flying secret night missions during World War II. B.D. has studied astrology for over twenty years and is an avid reader of true crime stories. These two hobbies gave birth to her interest in "forensic astrology," in which horoscopes of events are used to determine the circumstances surrounding those events. Her mission is to promote forensic astrology to help solve cases of missing persons and unsolved crimes. B.D. has worked with investigators on a number of cold cases and writes extensively about famous crimes and missing persons. B.D. was interviewed by This Week in America Radio's host Ric Bratton about her first book, Forensics by the Stars, in August 2013.
