Our next meeting will feature NYT bestselling author Caitlin Rozakis! This is an in-person meeting at St. Mary’s at Penn on the Penn campus, 3916 Locust Walk, in the Parish Hall behind the Sanctuary. Caitlin Rozakis will be signing copies of her newest book, The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association.
Caitlin Rozakis is the New York Times bestselling author of Dreadful and The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association. Her contemporary romance novella Leah’s Perfect Christmas, written as Catherine Beck, was adapted as the Hallmark Channel Original Movie Leah’s Perfect Gift. After graduating from Princeton, she has had too many career changes, including mechanical engineering (cut short after the murderous robot incident), finance (amortizing tequila receivables is not as fun as drinking tequila), and the American Museum of Natural History (who knew emus had birth certificates?), and a number of marketing positions, some at companies you may have even heard of. She lives in Jersey City with her husband and son. Visit her online at www.caitlinrozakis.com.
