Something wrong?About this person
She met her husband, Martin, on a blind date when they were seventeen and after they both graduated from the University of Maryland, they moved to Cincinnati, Ohio. Karen worked as a chemical engineer for a large consumer goods company, earning two patents, but as Karen says, “scenes were roiling in my head and I couldn't concentrate on my job so I started writing them down. I started out writing for fun, and soon found I was hooked.”
