About the Author:
Lisa April Smith lives with her husband, He-who-wishes-to-remain-anonymous, in Eternal Playland, Florida, a delightful spot just off I-95. Ms. Smith describes her hometown as: "a little piece of level heaven with occasional dampness, where the bugs are plentiful but respectful, and even the smallest strip mall contains at least one pizza parlor and a nail salon."
Before discovering a passion for writing Ms. Smith traded in antiques, taught ballroom dancing and managed projects for IBM. College studies included psychology, archaeology, literature, history, anthropology/sociology and computer science. She holds degrees in the latter two fields. A sought-after speaker, she has been interviewed on both radio and television, and addressed groups from small intimate gatherings to theater-sized audiences. Adding a new role, this October, she begins teaching a class on writing as part of a program for continuing education. Combine those widely diverse interests with a wry wit and creative ingenuity and readers won't be surprised at the amazing reviews her books inspire. Perhaps one admiring reviewer said it best, "Lisa April Smith's books have the pace of and heat of Jacqueline Susann and the style and sophistication of Dominick Dunne."
