Judith Flanders

Judith Flanders’ family left the UK for Montreal when she was two. She returned to London after graduating from Skidmore College to begin a career as a book editor, which she has since described as a “seventeen-year misstep.” She has published six books of history and one novel. “In a rather acid moment,” she wrote in 2013, “my publisher once said that all my books could secretly be titled Fun Stuff I Have Found Out.”
