Author Bio:

Born in Connecticut, Annie Proulx grew up in a family of sisters in various parts of New England and in North Carolina. Her mother was a painter. Proulx loved the outdoors, including canoeing and fishing, and wrote for outdoor-life magazines as a journalist for 20 years before she became a fiction writer. She studied history, first at the University of Vermont (B.A., 1969), then at George Williams University in Montreal (M.A., 1973). She has lived in Vermont and, more recently, Wyoming. She has been married and divorced three times and has three sons. Proulx, who began writing (bored by a childhood illness) at the age of 10, published her first novel, POSTCARDS, in 1992; it won a PEN/Faulkner award. THE SHIPPING NEWS won the National Book Award and the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
