Biographie:
Amy Young, author of The Water Tower, received her B.A. in English from Kenyon College. Growing up in Bay Village, Ohio, Amy could most often be found with her nose buried in a book, and was particularly fond of Nancy Drew, Sweet Valley High, and The Babysitters' Club. She always had a flair for the dramatic and has worked as an actress in many stage productions and a few TV shows (though she never got to be a Bond girl like Josie). When not writing, Amy enjoys drinking red wine and binging on reality TV shows with her husband, pup, and many, many cats....
