Tess Gerritsen![]() Books:Ice Cold, August 2010 |
TIME: 1:00pm - 2:00pm local time
Internationally bestselling author Tess Gerritsen took an unusual route to a writing career. A graduate of Stanford University, Tess went on to medical school at the University of California, San Francisco, where she was awarded her M.D.
While on maternity leave from her work as a physician, she began to write fiction. In 1987, her first novel was published. Call After Midnight, a romantic thriller, was followed by eight more romantic suspense novels. She also wrote a screenplay, “Adrift”, which aired as a 1993 CBS Movie of the Week starring Kate Jackson.
Tess’s first medical thriller, Harvest, was released in hardcover in 1996, and it marked her debut on the New York Times bestseller list. Her suspense novels since then have been: Life Support (1997), Bloodstream (1998), Gravity (1999), The Surgeon (2001), The Apprentice (2002), The Sinner (2003), Body Double (2004), Vanish (2005), The Mephisto Club (2006), The Bone Garden (2007), The Keepsake (2008; UK title: Keeping the Dead), and Ice Cold (2010; UK title: The Killing Place.) Her books have been translated into 37 languages, and more than 20 million copies have been sold around the world.
Her books have been top-5 bestsellers in the United States and abroad. She has won both the Nero Wolfe Award (for Vanish) and the Rita Award (for The Surgeon). Critics around the world have praised her novels as “Pulse-pounding fun” (Philadelphia Inquirer), “Scary and brilliant” (Toronto Globe and Mail), and “Polished, riveting prose” (Chicago Tribune). Publisher Weekly has dubbed her the “medical suspense queen”.
Now retired from medicine, she writes full time. She lives in Maine.
Sue Ellen HaningBooks:Two Nuts in Italy, October 2009 |
TIME: 1:00pm - 5:00pm local time
Sue Ellen Haning is a thirty-eight-year-teaching veteran whose passion is teaching children to read. She has published articles on teaching and lives in west Texas. She is the mother of three children, Jarrod, Jake, and Jenny. Her life was drastically changed when she spent three months backpacking with her daughter the summer of 2005. The adventures, near misses, and other crazy notions her daughter, Jenny, kept her in for three months stretched Sue Ellen in every direction, especially outside her comfort zone. "Once I stayed outside my comfort zone long enough, I realized there is a new world out there, and I now reap the gifts of experiencing life on a deeper level."
