 Mandy Straussberg
Mandy Straussberg is sweet and intelligent, but does have
a stubborn streak. She’s had her share of disagreements with her best
friend, Liz Horton. But the two of them have been there for each other,
even through the tough times. Mandy’s brother, David, is sometimes too
cynical for his own good.
Amanda "Mandy" Straussberg is best known around Odyssey
for her talent in writing stories and plays. She is best friends with
Liz Horton and has an older brother,
David Straussberg. Her parents
separated for a time, which was hard on Mandy (the problems affecting
her as far back as #580:
Tales of a Small-Town
Thug). Fortunately, they have reconciled, and
now Mandy's character is back to normal. She loves to write, having
written three plays put on in the Little Theater at Whit's End (Mandy's
Debut) and a play for Kid's Radio—The
Great Wishy Woz.
Family
It was revealed in
The Present Long Ago
that she will one day marry Odyssey Middle School's other top student,
Trent DeWhite, as the result of Trent
delivering her a valentine that was really from Max Hampton.
A Class Reenactment,
she and Trent are only close friends, though many Odyssey characters,
such as Connie, believe they're more than friends. She will have at
least one child and two grandchildren, one named Brandon, and her
brother-in-law upon her marriage will be
Jared DeWhite. Her parents are Stephen Straussberg and Rachel
Straussberg, and her brother is David
Straussberg.
