Author BIO
Virginia Aronson

After reading the work of Sylvia Plath, Virginia Aronson fell in love with poetry. She wrote a verse play about Plath and fellow poet Anne Sexton that was staged in Lawrence, Kansas. Hundreds of her poems have appeared in literary magazines, and some have been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net. She also writes nonfiction and literary fiction, her books published by Random House, Doubleday, Macmillan, Prentice-Hall, Penguin, and small independent presses in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and India. Before moving to tropical Florida with her family, she sent many years in Jamaica Plain, the leafy town outside Boston where Sylvia Plath lived as a child.
