Mer om författaren

Laura Van Wormer was raised in Darien, Connecticut, and received a B.S. degree in Public Communications from the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. She joined Doubleday and Company as a secretary and worked her way up to the position of editor. As a freelance writer, she worked with the creators of the prime-time TV shows Dynasty, Dallas and Knots Landing to write coffee-table books about the shows. She is the author of ten novels including Riverside Drive, West End, Jury Duty and Talk. In Expose, Laura introduced readers to 30-something-year old journalist Sally Harrington. Sally has been featured in Expose, The Last Lover, Trouble Becomes Her and will appear in Laura's newest novel, The Bad Witness, in 2002. Both reviewers and fans have embraced Sally: "Sally is a heroine who is brave and frightened, energetic and exhausted, confused and right on the money." –Associated Press; "Sally is an intriguing character whose desire to return to the glamorous side of her industry seems to overcome her common sense. It is Sally's flaws and obsessions that make Laura Van Wormer's latest novel an enjoyable read." –Midwest Book Review; "Journalist Sally Harrington is an appealing mix of brains and folly." –Publishers Weekly; "Laura Van Wormer specialises in creating smart heroines with glamorous jobs and a knack for solving complicated murder mysteries." –New York Times Book Review. Laura divides her time between Manhattan and her English-style, stone-and-stucco farmhouse in Meriden, Connecticut, where she sits on the board of directors of the Friends of the Meriden Public Library and the Augusta Curtis Cultural Centre, Inc.
