Kate is super proud of her work as a Master Clothing Volunteer where she teaches sewing to young people across Jefferson County. She graduated from the wild institution of Goddard College with a BFA in creative writing and has worked in the book industry in one role or another her entire adult life and a few of her reckless teenage years too. She lives with her husband, Michael, and their exceptionally sweet dog, Perl, in Louisville, Kentucky. She can be found online at [...]. This is her first book.
