Biography


Her first book 'You Can't Catch Death: A Daughter's Memoir' was published in 2000. She writes about her father and the impact his suicide had on her own life. She was just nine years old when he first told her that he wanted to kill himself, but she was 24 before he finally did so. The book is written in a similar way to her father's work, with short chapters and an impressionistic style. She describes her early life in Montana, spending time with her father and his beat generation friends, such as the writers Tom McGuane and Jim Harrison. She travelled with him to Hawaii and Japan.
On her publisher's website it states that she is married with children and currently lives in the United States. [1]
