Amy Ephron is a writer who lives in Los Angeles. In addition to her novels and non-fiction books and essays which have appeared in Vogue, House Beautiful, the Huffington Post, The Daily Beast, etc, she has a column at The New York Times' "T" on-line called "L.A. POV" which skitters around fashion, entertainment, food, art, architecture, & occasionally the criminal court system.
author's note: I first read the word "skitters" in Kay Thompson's "Eloise at the Plaza," which is still one of my favorite books.
