HARRIET REISEN

Harriet Reisen’s interest in Louisa May Alcott dates to her marathon reading of Alcott’s eight children’s novels after her mother presented her with a copy of Little Women. Over the past twenty years, what began as a passion for the subject of Louisa May Alcott developed into a film biography for PBS’s American Masters and this book. Reisen has worked as a journalist, a lyricist, in public television as a writer and producer, and as a contributor to public radio.
