About the Author

Now a Mainer, by way of Minnesota, California, and her birth state New York, Amy Fried loves the sense of community here and the wonderful mix of culture and outdoor recreation. She loves politics in three ways: as an analytical political scientist, a devoted political junkie and a citizen who believes politics matters for people's lives.
