Beth Strauss is an educator, freelance journalist, and novelist. After a career in academia and the health sciences, she pursued her first love: writing. Beth completed her Master’s degree in journalism at Harvard and published stories in local papers and academic journals. Following this, she realized she preferred the freedom of creative writing over the regimented styles of academia and journalism. A native Californian, Beth eventually headed east to Philadelphia and now bounces between both coasts. When she is not writing, she enjoys pottery and photography, as well as taking hikes with her rescue pup, Maddie.
