Kathryn Klos

Kathryn Hilliard Lykken Klos was born in Minneapolis, where she grew up, married, and had a number of wonderful children. The daughter of a high school English teacher and a mom who loved to write, Kathy hopes they are smiling down from the stars on her creative endeavors with Amazon.

Kathy attended Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota, focusing on English and theater; graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Nursing with a BSN; and received a JD from William Mitchell College of Law. She has enjoyed writing all her life, has worked as a registered nurse, and has stayed out of court as much as possible.

Although a Minnesotan at heart, Kathy has lived in Michigan's Upper Peninsula since 2002. She encourages visitors of all species to feeders outside a home that she shares with persons of the human, canine, feline and avian persuasions.

Aside from writing, Kathy's passions include history, genealogy, videography (YouTube handle: kkloskklos), paddling old wooden canoes and exploring the woods and other U.P. environs (when the weather doesn't make it seem like the ice moon from her novel "The Storyteller").
