Ann Hood was born in Rhode Island. She graduated from the
University of Rhode Island with a degree in American Literature and
worked as a flight attendant for TWA for 8 years. Whilst working as
a flight attendant, Ann got a Master's degree from New York
University, also in American Literature. She lived in NYC until
1993 when she re-met and married someone she knew in high
school.
Ann then moved back to Rhode Island and had a son, Sam, who is now
14. Her daughter Grace died in 2002 when she was 5; as a result,
she adopted a baby from China last year, Annabelle, who is now
3.

gift for Ann Hood, who suffered a loss nearly identical to Mary
Baxter's, to have made of her grief.’
Newsday ‘Memorably stirring and authentic.’
Los Angeles Times Book Review ‘Ann Hood writes with the ease of a
born storyteller.’
