I am a New York-based writer and I have made the history of Manhattan a central focus of both my fiction and nonfiction. My most recent novel is Savage Girl (Viking, 2014) a mystery with a twist of fable about a “feral child” who gets transformed Pygmalion style into a Gilded Age debutante. My previous books include the historical novel The Orphanmaster, which told the story of a spunky, beautiful heroine and her sensitive yet manly lover who together embark on a quest to solve a series of grisly crimes in 1663 New Amsterdam. My most recent nonfiction work was Love, Fiercely: A Gilded Age Romance, a portrait of an iconic couple of Gilded Age Manhattan. An honors graduate of Barnard College, I earned a graduate degree in writing from the Columbia University School of the Arts, published my poetry widely in literary magazines, and received a Writing Fellowship from New York Foundation for the Arts. I live with my family in Westchester County, New York.
