BIOGRAPHY

Picture
MARTHA KIMES grew up in small-town Illinois, small-town Virginia, and small-town Wisconsin. She spent the first 18 years of her life dreaming about living in a place that wasn't so small.

After graduating from the University of Wisconsin, Martha went off to New York City to attend Columbia Law School. To find out more about that period of her life, you're going to have to pony up and buy her book, Ivy Briefs, which chronicles her law school adventures.

Martha graduated with honors from Columbia Law School, and has practiced law for 12 years.  Martha is now a writer and attorney living in Phoenix with her husband, Joe, and her two sons, Donovan and Simon. She misses New York desperately, and has concrete plans to return the day after her youngest son goes off to college.

She loves hearing from her readers, so please feel free to contact her at marthakimes@gmail.com - especially if you happen to share Martha's unnatural fondness for beef jerky, impractical shoes, and bad reality TV. Chances are, she'll probably e-mail you back.
