Biography
Hawley grew up in suburbs of New York and Chicago. At Wellesley College, she majored in English literature with a minor in art history. During college summers, she studied art in Italy and acting at the Neighborhood Playhouse in Manhattan.
Since then, she has been lucky to live in Manhattan, Rome, Bodega Bay, Santa Fe, Santa Barbara, and the Napa Valley. Now she has settled in the scenic San Juan Islands, Washington, nestled between the mainland United States and Canada's Vancouver Island. She keeps in touch with her son and grandson as well as with good friends from every period of her life.
Hawley's memoir-in-progress is the story of a family and a life of dramatic contrasts.
