Having the Time of My Midlife

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Robyn Peterman writes because the people inside her head won’t leave her alone until she gives them life on paper. She writes snarky, sexy, funny paranormal and snarky, sexy, funny contemporaries. A former professional actress, with Broadway, film, and TV credits, she now lives in the south with her family and too many animals to count. Writing gives her peace and makes her whole, plus having a job where she can work in her sweatpants works really well for her.

Jessica Almasy (she, her) In addition to a long standing and fabulous collaboration with the ebullient Robyn Peterman, Ms Almasy has been a partner in various and sundry experimental art projects, including - but not limited to - the following: a radical pop-up performance festival AmericanAF following the Charlottesville monument attacks; Out of An Abundance of Caution, a weekly live avant-garde DIY broadcast to keep artists paid and making during the Pandemic; the TEAM: an internationally and nationally touring devising theatre company making political art about America; hundreds of audiobooks about women authored mainly by women; and in Hollywood playing a societal anarchist in a role originally written for a 70 year old white man opposite Tim Robbins in the feature film NOISE. Most recently Ms Almasy has the honor of voicing filmmaker and disrupter Shirley Clarke in Pulitzer Prize winner and exceptional human Hilton Als’ audio translation of Portrait of Jason. She lives on Lenape land 90 miles south of New York City in a multigenerational household to experiment with interrupting the white societal imperatives of increased property accrual.
