I'm a Harvard-trained Neuroscientist, a Meisner-trained actress, and a completely untrained writer!
My first novel, STILL ALICE, came out in the US on January 6, 2009 by Pocket Books/Simon & Schuster and debuted at #5 on the New York Times Bestseller List!
“Heartbreakingly real. . . . So real, in fact, that it kept me from sleeping for several nights. I couldn’t put it down. . . . Still Alice is a story that must be told.”
--Brunonia Barry, New York Times Bestselling author of The Lace Reader
"After I read Still Alice, I wanted to stand up and tell a train full of strangers, ‘You have to get this book.’”
--Beverly Beckham, The Boston Globe
"A work of pure genius."
--Charley Schneider, author of Don't Bury Me, It Ain't Over Yet
“A masterpiece that will touch lives in ways none of us can even imagine. This book is the best portrayal of the Alzheimer’s journey that I have read, accurately and sensitively describing what a person might think and feel, experience and fear, do and not do.”
—Mark Warner, AlzheImer’s DaIly News
