Lauren Grodstein (Born on November 19, 1975 in New York, NY) is an American novelist and educator at Rutgers University of Camden in New Jersey. Unlike many other female writers and novelist, Grodstein uses male viewpoints in two of her novels to tell the story. Writing since her youth, she has always known that she would become a writer. Remembering back to her childhood days, Grodstein would tell stories (a lie) to the other kids, embellishing things that had actually happened or making up alternate worlds so that her own would be a more interesting place. Later on Lauren was awarded with the Philolexian Prize at Columbia University in 1997 and had her novel, Girls Dinner Club, on the “Book for the Teen Age” list at the New York Public Library in 2006. Her novels made big impacts on many of her readers which helped them get on the recommendation lists of book clubs worldwide and on many celebrities’ book lists as well.
