She lives in East Dallas, where she listens to ELO when she’s not listening to Taylor Swift. She enjoys puttering in her garden when she remembers she has one. She’s the writer of Love Anyway, about the world’s greatest unsolved mystery, and the co-host of “Smoke ‘Em if You Got ‘Em,” a culture podcast she hosts with friend and fellow scribe Nancy Rommelmann. She’s the host and creator of the Texas Monthly podcast America’s Girls, an eight-part series on the lost history and cultural impact of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. She never knew she was a cat person until she got a cat. Be honest: Could you refuse this face?
