Author Bio
Anne Kreamer has been fortunate to be at the right places at the right times. In the late 70s she was part of the team that turned Sesame Street into a global brand. A decade later she helped launch SPY magazine, about which Dave Eggers, author of A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, has said, "It's pretty safe to say that SPY was the most influential magazine of the 1980s." In the 1990s, when her children were little she had the perfect job — Worldwide Creative Director for Nickelodeon and Nick at Nite. She switched careers in the late 90s, becoming a columnist for the cutting-edge business magazine Fast Company. Today, with Going Gray, Kreamer is once again in the vanguard, good-naturedly encouraging baby-boomer women to rediscover their generation's youthful embrace of honesty and realness and swimming against the tide. Kreamer lives in Brooklyn with her husband, the writer Kurt Andersen, and her two children, Kate and Lucy.
