Charlotte Riley-Webb: Hello. My name is Charlotte Riley-Webb. I wanted to give my parents credit for my education, and therefore, kept the name Riley and hyphenated my name. Many people relate my name to the children's book and movie Charlotte's Web. I often get asked the questions like, "Did you write, or have you read the book about your name?" Or, "Were you teased as a child?"

I always smile and say, "No. I married Mr. Webb, and I married him for his name." I must admit, being an artist and book illustrator, it comes in handy, because at least folks do remember my name.
