Books By Elizabeth Flock - Author

The South has always played an integral role in Elizabeth Flock's life. Though raised in Connecticut, Flock spent her childhood visiting grandparents and other relatives in her father's native Texas, soaking in the rich Southern tradition of storytelling and lore. By the time she turned eighteen, the draw of the South was too difficult to resist and she enrolled at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. Soon after graduation, Flock began her career in print at Vanity Fair magazine. Then it was on to San Francisco, where she reported for Time and People magazines. While at Time, she wrote several cover stories, including one about the fiery 1993 siege at the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas. After five years of print reporting, Flock was drawn to television. Soon she was anchoring and reporting at a 24-hour cable network and writing for the NBC-affiliate news station. But New York beckoned, and following a freelance assignment she was hired by CBS.

Elizabeth Flock's first novel, BUT INSIDE I'M SCREAMING, a fictionalized account of a journalist's fight for sanity, was published by MIRA Books in 2003. The author lives in Chicago with her husband and two stepdaughters.
