Kelly Moore

Kelly Moore is a New York Times best-selling author, former litigator, and single mother of three. She co-wrote the true-crime work DEADLY MEDICINE, which went on to become a New York Times best-seller for seven weeks; its feature-length television adaptation aired on NBC in 1991. Her latest project, the young adult fiction series THE AMBER HOUSE TRILOGY, co-written with her two daughters and based loosely upon her own family history, examines fourteen generations of Maryland women and their ties to the past, present, and future.  The first book in the series was nominated for the 2014 Dolly Gray Children's Literature Award for its realistic portrayal of characters with autism; Moore is outspoken about her inclusion in the autism spectrum, and is dedicated to autism awareness.
