Person
Maryka Biaggio, Ph.D., is a psychology professor turned novelist specializing in historical fiction based on real people. She enjoys the challenge of starting with actual historical figures and dramatizing their lives-discovering what motivated them to behave as they did, studying how the cultural and historical context may have influenced them, and recreating some sense of their emotional world through dialogue and action. Doubleday published her debut novel, PARLOR GAMES, in 2013. EDEN WAITS and THE POINT OF VANISHING were published by Milford House Press in 2019 and 2021. She lives in Portland, Oregon.
