Rachel Profiling

Hello, I'm Rachel.

Writer/editor. New Mexican tumbleweed blown east to skyscraper country.

Right now, I am working on a book about F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sheilah Graham, and Hollywood in the 1930s. It will also contain a lot of drinking, powder blue suits, dances at the Cocoanut Grove, betrayal, gossip columns, crazy ladies, secret Jews, film lot moguls, and Dorothy Parker quips at funerals. If the world is still around then, it should be out from Random House around 2014. So let's hope the Mayans were wrong.

If you want to say hi please do. Or find me in short form, here.

A silly bit of self-promo: I am the “Jauntsetter of the Week” for the lovely Dorothy McGivney’s weekly travel newsletter. I think the second installment, which covers New Mexico and all of its enchantments and will be posted next week, might be more bang for your buck, but if you want to read my thoughts on chex mix, duck fat, TCBY, and racing for beer, you can do that here.
