Wendy Walker wrote her first novel, Four Wives, in the back of her minivan. The novel explores themes of friendship, marriage, and motherhood, looking at the idyllic suburbia of Hunting Ridge, and the secrets hidden behind its perfectly manicured exterior. Her second novel, Social Lives, is a tale of growing up in the gilded cage of privilege and wealth. She edited Chicken Soup for the Soul: Power Moms – 101 Stories Celebrating the Power of Choice for Stay at Home and Work from Home Moms. Her latest novel, All is Not Forgotten, was published in July 2016 by St. Martin’s Press.

As an attorney, Walker worked in private practice both in New York and Connecticut, and served as a pro bono lawyer at the ACLU. While attending Law School at Georgetown University, where she graduated magna cum laude, she spent a summer in the Special Prosecutions Division of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York.

Wendy obtained her undergraduate degree from Brown University with a double major in economics and political science. Her junior year was spent at the London School of Economics. Upon graduating magna cum laude, she worked as a financial analyst in the Mergers and Acquisitions department of Goldman, Sachs & Co. in New York.

As a young girl, Wendy trained for competitive figure skating at facilities in Colorado and New York. She now serves on the board of Figure Skating in Harlem, an organization committed to the development of underprivileged girls which she helped found in 1997. She lives in suburban Connecticut and is busy raising her three sons and writing her third novel.
