About the author

Lisa Ann Gallagher was born in Detroit, Michigan on December 7, 1967. She grew up in the suburbs of Detroit and became a part of the thriving mid-80s Detroit alternative music scene during her teens - as the lead singer of an all-girl band and editor of a punk fanzine, then later as a supporter and friend to many other bands. Lisa Ann left Detroit in 1991 and spent the next 14 years exploring a variety of jobs (including as a product trainer for Cadillac), traveling the world and writing. Her first novel, 'Flower of Fire', a thriller about a modern-day Typhoid Mary, was published in October 2010. A collection of 18 poems, 'Incantations' followed in 2011. Her memoir 'The Laws of Gravity' was published in the summer of 2013 and her newest book, 'The Gatherers', a novel about sisters, Detroit and organized crime, was published in June 2018. Lisa Ann is now helping other authors create their stories with The Write Stuff, a coaching program for fiction writers.
