ⓘ About Meg Waite Clayton

Author Meg Waite Clayton was born in Washington D.C. Since she loves to travel, she likes setting her novels in places she finds fascinating. She graduated from Glenbrook North High School in suburban Chicago, where she grew up. She went to the University of Michigan believing that she would become a doctor, and came out a corporate lawyer in her tidy blue suit. She worked at Latham and Watkins, a law firm based in Los Angeles. She was thirty-two when she worked up enough nerve to give writing a serious go, and pregnant with her second child, who was eleven when her debut novel was published. She has since found that writing is a lot tougher than it appears. Through it all, she has written essays and short stories, and quite a few pages that have wound up in the so called drawer.
