   510.848.6767X609\n\nBerkeley resident Ayelet Waldman - the author of Love 
 and Other Impossible Pursuits, Daughter's Keeper and the Mommy-Track 
 Mysteries - created a New York Times’s tempest last year when she 
 declared that she loved her husband, writer Michael Chabon, more than she 
 does their four children.  Oh-oh! Call security!\n\nMs Waldman’s essays 
 have been published in the New York Times, the Guardian, the San Francisco 
 Chronicle, Elle Magazine, Vogue, Allure, Cookie, Child, Parenting, Real 
 Simple, Health and Salon.com. Her radio commentaries have appeared on "All 
 Things Considered" and "The California Report." Her books are published 
 throughout the world, in countries as disparate as England and Thailand, 
 the Netherlands and China, Russia and Israel. Waldman was born in 
 Jerusalem, and raised in Canada and New Jersey. A graduate of Wesleyan 
 University and Harvard Law School, Waldman spent three years working as a 
 Federal Public Defender in central California. Her fiction has drawn 
 heavily on her legal education and career as an attorney. The film of  her 
 novel Love and Other Impossible Pursuits is now in production, with Natalie 
 Portman in the lead role, and also featuring Lisa Kudrow and Jeffrey Dean 
 Morgan.\n\n"Bad Mother is blunt, wry, prescriptive and pleasurable."\n      
                    —Meg Wolitzer, author of The Ten-Year Nap\n\n“Ayelet 
 Waldman’s sane perspective on the challenges of motherhood comes as a 
 relief. I relished her graceful language, self-mocking humor, her clear, if 
 sometimes painful, insight. And I admire her—deeply—for the bracing 
 honesty that redeems it all.\n                    —Peggy Orenstein, 
 author of Waiting for Daisy\n\n\n
