Reggie Nadelson

Reggie Nadelson is a successful mystery and thriller author who splits her time between London and New York. She was born and raised in Greenwich, United Kingdom, and attended the City and Country School before moving on to the Elisabeth Irwin High School. Nadelson then pursued her higher education in the United States, attending Vassar College as an English major and later obtaining her journalism degree from Stanford.

After graduating from Stanford, Nadelson worked various jobs in journalism and publishing, which involved a lot of travel. She always had a passion for writing but had to put it on hold as she earned a living. Eventually, she became a columnist for "The Guardian" and also worked for "The Independent" for a time. Nadelson then shifted gears and started working for the "BBC," producing and sometimes working as a narrator for a string of documentaries. As a journalist, she writes on various subjects, including leisure, travel, culture, and fashion for outlets such as the "BBC," "The Financial Times," "Departures," and "Conde Nast Traveller."

Nadelson's debut novel, "Comrade Rockstar," was a huge success. The book tells the story of Dean Reed, an American singer who became a pop star in East Germany during the Cold War. The novel's rights were purchased by Tom Hanks, who intends to make it into a film. Nadelson's first work of fiction is "Red Mercury Blues," the first of the "Artie Cohen" series of novels that she published in 1995. The "Artie Cohen" series features a Moscow-born New Yorker and the first great post-Cold War cop. Nadelson's writing has received critical acclaim, and her works continue to be popular among readers of mystery and thriller novels.
