Emily Fox Gordon has published personal essays in Boulevard, Salmagundi, and The American Scholar, and her work has won two Pushcart Prizes. An essay about her hospitalization as a teenager at Austen Riggs formed the basis for Mockingbird Years (2000), a memoir named a New York Times Notable Book and was chosen as one of Amazon.com’s top ten memoirs for the year. Gordon has taught workshops at Rice University, Houston’s INPRINT program, and the University of Wyoming. Her new memoir, ARE YOU HAPPY?, began as an essay.
