Johanna Edwards
Johanna Edwards is an award-winning journalist and radio/TV producer. Johanna's debut novel, The Next Big Thing, was released on March 1, 2005 and landed on both the Barnes & Noble bestseller list and the Neilsen BookScan bestseller list its first week out.
Johanna has been featured in USA Today, Us Weekly, The Boston Globe, Writer's Digest, The New York Post, The Detroit Free Press, The Daily Buzz, Figure Magazine, Entertainment Today, Publishers Weekly, The Arizona Daily Star, The Commercial Appeal, Memphis Magazine, The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, The Memphis Downtowner, San Diego Words Magazine, and The Romantic Times.
Johanna was born in 1978 in Memphis, Tennessee. She has published over 250 articles in both local and national magazines and newspapers. During her two year tenure as Arts and Entertainment Editor for The Daily Helmsman in Memphis, she wrote dozens of reviews and interviewed some of the biggest names in entertainment including 3 Doors Down, 'N Sync, Carrie-Anne Moss, Kevin Smith, Nick Stahl, Carmen Electra, Seann William Scott, Tori Spelling, Vivica A. Fox, Paul Walker, Jon Lithgow, Ivan Reitman and Steve Zahn (she also managed to weasel a free trip to Los Angeles to interview David Duchovny...but that's another story for another time).
When Johanna is not reading, writing, or working, she's a total travel-addict. She enjoys frequent vacations, especially to England (she's spent close to a year living, working and studying in and around London). Johanna also adores movies and TV, but feels neither can compare to a good book.
Johanna also writes teen books under the name Jo Edwards.
