About the Author
A mid-century enthusiast, Kathleen Perricone was born about 50 years too late. Luckily she gets to live in the past through her passion for biographical journalism: She has written about influential figures such as John F. Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe and Anne Frank. Over the past 15 years, she's also worked as a celebrity news editor in New York City as well as for Yahoo!, Ryan Seacrest Productions, and a reality TV family who shall remain nameless. Kathleen lives in Los Angeles with her Italian greyhound, Bella, and a 1961 Ford Thunderbird.
