Bridget Foley grew up as a middle child in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado before attending New York University's Tisch School of the Arts on an acting scholarship. Following that she was less an actor than she was an auditioner and an obtainer of expensive degrees. After attending UCLA's School of Theater, Film & Television she made a habit (rather than a living) of writing screenplays. She once danced the rumba with Tony Curtis. Now she is mostly a wife and mother just outside of Seattle. She should probably be folding laundry. Hugo & Rose is her first novel.
