Eileen Zimmerman Nicol
Biography
Eileen Zimmerman Nicol
Eileen Nicol had a long career writing code for computers in the tech industry. Now retired, she still enjoys writing, although for human audiences: book reviews, magazine articles, poetry and long fiction. She comes from a family of readers, including her husband and grown daughter, and her environment --- an island in the famously rainy Pacific Northwest --- supports the habit. Tom Robbins, Elizabeth Strout, Jennifer Egan, Don DeLillo and George Saunders are a few of her favorite living authors. When she’s not babysitting her grandson or reading, she sails in Alaska, does yoga, plays tennis, volunteers in the community and studies Buddhism.
