Born in Wurzburg, Germany, she was raised in upstate New York - Rochester, Penfield, and Webster and received a degree from the State University of New York at Brockport.

Brinklow has also been actively involved in community action, most recently the movement to block a plan to build a below-ground bus terminal as part of a "cultural center" in the heart of the old downtown district in Rochester, New York. She currently lives in Brockport with her two children (John, 18, vocals and lead guitarist of the Rochester band [http://www.myspace.com/meltyourfacegood Spartacus] and Casey, 15, also a vocalist) and makes ends meet working in the correspondence department for a nationally known US bank.
