Today, Bay Area Erin Gordon, who authors smart and moving book club fiction, joins Lloyd in the studio.

About Erin:

A Bay Area native, I graduated from UC Berkeley and Loyola Law School. After practicing law for three years, I went back to school and got a master’s in journalism from Stanford. I worked for several years as a newspaper reporter covering law firms and then spent more than 20 years as a freelance legal affairs journalist, writing novels in my spare time.

I’ve written seven books (three ended up in the proverbial drawer!) and I’m at work on my next. When not writing, I enjoy knitting, going for long walks in San Francisco, doing yoga, and spending time in Lake Tahoe.

I live in San Francisco with my husband and teenage children.
