Stephanie Kuehn

Stephanie Kuehn is a clinical psychologist and author best known for writing several freestanding psychological thrillers. She debuted her writing career with “Charm & Strange”, which won the William Morris Award in 2014. Stephanie Kuehn raised in Berkeley, California, a quirky sort of place full of bookstores. As an infant, she was adopted by a father that was an editor and journalist for the “San Francisco Chronicle”. As such, she spent a lot of her childhood with persons that had a passion and love for telling stories. From a very young age, the budding author was introduced to books, and was an employee in one of the bookstores. She would visit the bookstores every day after school and read everything that she could, though she particularly loved young adult novels. As an adult, she found her passion writing the very same type of books that she read as a teen. Her other passions include social justice, mental health advocacy, and any kind of sports. When she is not reading or writing or studying, she loves playing with her family or running. She currently lives with her husband, three children, and bunch of pets in Northern California.
