Deb Levy
Deb Levy, author of BURY THE HOT, was born in Miami where she grew up celebrating holidays with Sal Wainberg and his family. She trick-or-treated with his daughter. Sal and his wife attended Deb's wedding. Yet, Deb knew nothing of Sal's past until he called out of the blue and asked her to write his story. Born in a Polish shtetl in 1936, Sal's world was surrounded by murderous rage, and the spare miracle. From living in a ghetto to cowering for weeks in an attic; hiding underneath a farmhouse to wandering barefoot through fields of rye ... Sal lived a life that Deb only knew of from movies. "But don't write some Hollywood tale," Sal told her. "I want the truth." BURY THE HOT is the Holocaust story few have the tenacity or courage to share,

Julia Quinn
#1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn loves to dispel the myth that smart women don't read (or write) romance, and and if you watch reruns of the game show The Weakest Link you might just catch her winning the $79,000 jackpot. She displayed a decided lack of knowledge about baseball, country music, and plush toys, but she is proud to say that she aced all things British and literary, answered all of her history and geography questions correctly, and knew that there was a Da Vinci long before there was a code.

Ruth Hogan
I was born in the house where my parents still live in Bedford: my sister was so pleased to have a sibling that she threw a thrupenny bit at me. As a child I read everything I could lay my hands on: The Moomintrolls, A Hundred Million Francs, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, the back of cereal packets and gravestones. I was mad about dogs and horses, but didn't like daddy-long-legs or sugar in my tea.

Betty Corrello
Betty Corrello is an incredibly beautiful and normal woman. Despite her hardened exterior, she is biologically 95% marshmallow. She blames this on the abundance of water in her astrological chart.

She calls herself a stand-up comedian to avoid bullying, but she is actually an improv nerd. She does not like The Harold. She is Italian and American and spent time growing up in both countries.
