}}Carolyn Parkhurst (born January 18, 1971, Manchester, New Hampshire) is an American author who has published five books. Her first, the 2003 best-seller The Dogs of Babel[2][3] also known as Lorelei's Secret in the UK,[4][5] was a New York Times Notable Book and on the New York Times Best Seller List.[6]

She followed that effort with the New York Times bestselling Lost and Found[7][8] in June 2006 and The Nobodies Album[9][10][11][12] in June 2010. Her first children's book, written with Dan Yaccarino, Cooking with Henry and Elliebelly, was released in Fall, 2010.[14][13]

Parkhurst says she wrote her first story at age three by dictating The Table Family to her mother. An only child, she grew up in Waltham, Massachusetts; her parents separated when she was two years old.[14] Parkhurst spent so much time reading as a child, she had to be sent outside to play. She attended Belmont Day School and the Winsor School in Boston.[14] Her first story in print was for a Halloween contest by a local newspaper.[18]

Her first job in publishing came at age 15, writing record reviews for Star Hits magazine.[15] Parkhurst received her B.A. degree from Wesleyan University and an M.F.A. in Creative Writing from American University.[16] Married since 1998[14] and the mother of two children,[16] she currently resides in Washington, D.C.[15]
