The unofficial version:

Like everybody else, Brenda is a product of chance, and like many lucky others, she is a product of love. Hippie parents, a dysfunctional extended family, a multicultural city, big catastrophes, homemade food, lots of music, long conversations, public art, big (and small) decisions, broken hearts, a bit of solitude, luck and the lack of it, ambiguity and sometimes clarity. Everything that fits within our personal stories.
