Biography

Michelle L. Cullen has lived and traveled all over the world: from Paris to Kigali, London to Lombok, Melbourne to Antigua. For almost a decade, she worked as an anthropologist in conflict-affected countries, focusing on reconstruction projects in Africa, East Asia, South Asia, and the Pacific—where she saw and experienced the best and worst of human behavior. Her lifelong fascination with people, and why they do what they do, has been fueled by her academic training. She obtained her Ph.D. from the London School of Economics’ Sociology Department in England and her master’s degree in Anthropology from Melbourne University in Australia. Together, these experiences have inspired and informed Michelle's stories. She is a member of Sisters in Crime, Mystery Writers of America, International Thriller Writers, and The Authors Guild, and has been gleefully reading mysteries since the age of ten. Michelle is represented by Paula Munier at Talcott Notch Literary.
