Kate White

Kate White is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of 19 novels of suspense: 11 stand-alone psychological thrillers --- including her latest, I CAME BACK FOR YOU --- and eight Bailey Weggins mysteries.

A former Glamour magazine Top Ten College Women Contest winner and cover girl, Kate had a long career in the media world, which included running five national magazines. For 14 years she was the editor-in-chief of Cosmopolitan, which under her became the most successful magazine in single copy sales in the U.S. Though she loved her magazine career, she decided to leave 12 years ago to concentrate full-time on another passion: writing suspense fiction.

She is also the author of several bestselling career books, including I SHOULDN'T BE TELLING YOU THIS, and the groundbreaking Wall Street Journal bestseller, WHY GOOD GIRLS DON'T GET AHEAD BUT GUTSY GIRLS DO.

Kate is an avid traveler and spends each winter with her husband at their home in Uruguay. She holds an honorary doctorate of letters from her alma mater, Union College, where she gave the 2022 commencement address.
