PERSONAL BIO—Alison Hart
    Alison sold her first book in l980, and since then has sold over 75 books in the
contemporary romance genre.  Her first professional writing award came from RWA,
a Silver Medallion in l984, followed by over 20 nominations and awards, including
being honored in RWA’s Hall of Fame.  Alison has been on numerous bestseller lists,
has written for Harlequin, Avon, Berkley and Dell, and has sold over the world in over
20 languages.  She has also accumulated a number of pseudonyms, most recognizably
“JENNIFER GREENE”, but also Jeanne Grant and Jessica Massey.

She was born in Michigan, started writing in high school, and graduated from
Michigan State University with a degree in English and Psychology.  The University
honored her with their “Lantern Night Award”, a tradition developed to honor fifty
outstanding women graduates each year.  Exploring issues and concerns for women
today is what first motivated her to write, and she has long been an enthusiastic and
active supporter of women’s fiction, which she believes is an ‘unbeatable way to reach
out and support other women’.  Alison lives in the country around Benton Harbor,
Michigan, with her husband Lar.
