Joan Theresa Garrity (born c. 1940), is an American author, best known as the author of The Sensuous Woman. She was raised in Lee's Summit, Missouri[1] and she studied at Palm Beach Junior College in Florida. She worked on the staff of publisher Lyle Stuart and published a book about shopping in New York. In 1969 she published, under the pseudonym of "J.", The Sensuous Woman, subtitled "the first how-to book for the female who yearns to be all woman". It was also published as The Way to Become the Sensuous Woman. The book spent eight weeks at No. 1 on the New York Times bestseller list and nearly a year on the list overall.[2] In later editions, she used the name Terry Garrity. A spoken-word record album was made in 1969, based on the book, called J – The Way To Become A Sensuous Woman.[3][4] In 1977, she published Total Loving: how to love and be loved for the rest of your life, and in 1984, Story of "J": the author of The Sensuous Woman tells the bitter price of her crazy success, with her brother John Garrity as co-author. In this book she and her brother discuss how she coped with bipolar disorder.[5] References1. ^Kansas City, MO Library bio {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070310210615/http://www.kclibrary.org/localhistory/media.cfm?mediaID=110633 |date=March 10, 2007 }} 2. ^John Bear, The No. 1 New York Times Best Seller: intriguing facts about the 484 books that have been #1 New York Times bestsellers since the first list, 50 years ago, Berkeley: Ten Speed Press, 1992 3. ^Voxpop, "J – The Way To Become A Sensuous Woman" (LP) {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070311141307/http://www.voxpopmusic.com/ViewProdDetails.asp?prod_code=11676&Prod_name=The+Way+To+Become+A+Sensuous+Woman&CAT_CODE=15&SUBCAT_CODE=36 |date=March 11, 2007 }} 4. ^Hyp Records, "The Amorous Arts" 5. ^John Garrity, "Teeing Off: The Wrong Diagnosis?
