Edith Kunz

Edith Kunz is a graduate of the University of Denver and retired from a successful career in retail merchandising with Goldwater's Department Store. She serves on the advisory board of the Center for Film, Media and Popular Culture at Arizona State University. A committed francophile since childhood, for the past several decades she has chosen to live part of each year in Paris, France. During the winter she resides in Scottsdale, Arizona, with her husband. Their adult daughters live in the USA. Edith says that the distinct contrast between the serene beauty of Arizona and the urbanity of Paris invigorates the senses, offering an ideal lifestyle for a writer.

Fatale: How French Women Do It, Edith's book explaining the mystique of the of the French woman (sexy, smart and chic), published in 2000 and available in its third printing, is still in constant demand. No doubt because her work reflects an in-depth knowledge of the subject, a grasp of history - and, not least, a formidable wit!
