Rachel Howard
Biography
Rachel Howard
Rachel Howard grew up in the "other California," the flat, dry farmland of the Central Valley. She was earning lackluster grades in high school and planning to become a flag team instructor when she saw a statewide writing contest sponsored by UC Santa Barbara's College of Creative Studies and entered on a lark. She won, and was petitioned into the school and given a fellowship. She has written about the arts for the San Francisco Chronicle, the Village Voice, the San Francisco Examiner, and many other publications. "The Lost Night" is her first book. She lives with her husband in San Francisco, where she is a member of the San Francisco Writers Grotto.
