Author Bio
Meredith May spent sixteen years at the San Francisco Chronicle, where her narrative reporting won the PEN USA Literary Award for Journalism and was short-listed for the Pulitzer Prize. The Honey Bus (2019) is May's first solo book. She also coauthored I, Who Did Not Die (2017), the true story of a 13-year-old Iranian child soldier who saved an enemy combatant's life during the Iran-Iraq War.

A former professor of journalism and podcasting at Mills College in Oakland, California, May lives in San Francisco, where she rows on the Bay. She is a fifth-generation beekeeper and keeps several hives in a community garden. (Adapted from the publisher and the author's website.)
