 I'm a New York Times bestselling author whose books (with Random House, Simon & Schuster, and St.Martin's Press) have sold millions of copies in hardcover and paperback, been translated into 19 languages, published in 25 countries and selected by the Literary Guild and Book-of-the-Month Club.
I started out in publishing right after I graduated from college. My first job was as secretary to a textbook editor, an unpromising start if there ever was one, but I was soon promoted to copyediting—much more interesting.
In the years that followed—the years when editors ran publishing—I worked at Dell and Bantam and at Lancer, a successful but now defunct (not because of me!) independent mass market paperback publisher where I wallowed in the joys of genre publishing in its heyday.
I've been a copywriter, assistant editor, editor, editor-in-chief and, eventually, publisher (at Kensington).
I live in New York City with my husband, writer Michael Harris, author of Always On Sunday: An Inside View of Ed Sullivan, The Beatles, Elvis, Sinatra and Ed's Other Guests and The Atomic Times: My H-Bomb Year at the Pacific Proving Ground.
