About Gail Sheehy
American author, journalist, and lecturer
Gail Sheehy was an American author, journalist, and lecturer. She is known for her seventeen books and for high-profile magazine writing in outlets such as New York and Vanity Fair. Sheehy helped shape the movement Tom Wolfe called New Journalism, also known as creative nonfiction. In that style, writers used literary techniques such as scene setting, dialogue, and status details, and sometimes entered the story more closely to report a central character’s thoughts.
