A.H. Kim (Ann) was born in Seoul, South Korea and immigrated to the U.S. as a young child. Ann was educated at Harvard College and Berkeley Law School, where she was an editor of the California Law Review.

Ann practiced corporate law for many years and served as chief of staff to the CEO and as head of investor relations at a Fortune 200 company.

Ann is the proud mother of two sons, a longtime cancer survivor, and community volunteer. After raising her family in the Bay Area, Ann and her husband now call Ann Arbor home.

I had been frustrated by my inability to get an agent interested in my first book, a heartfelt YA novel, and decided I would try to write a juicy page-turner that no one could resist. Orange is the New Black had recently come out on Netflix, and I realized my insider's view into women's prison could form the basis for a compelling family drama. (less)

Both my brother and sister-in-law are terrific readers and I thought maybe they'd feel bad if they didn't like my writing. But they couldn't have been more supportive both in terms of the story and writing. Although the basic set-up -- brother with wife in prison -- and some of the prison details were drawn from reality, most of the juicy stuff (Big Pharma, whistleblower lawsuit, the luxe houses in Princeton and St. Michaels) is pure fiction. Thank you for asking!(less)

REFLECTIONS AND TRANSGRESSIONS

Hyun Jung (Kim) Grant with her two sons

Hyun Jung (Kim) Grant with her two sons

This past week, the Asian employee resource group at my workplace held a healing circle in memory of those killed in Atlanta two weeks ago. I was asked to provide a reflection. Here’s what I said.

I saw my name on the list of victims in the Atlanta spa murders.

In most newspapers, she’s listed as Hyun Jung Grant. But her maiden name, her Korean name, is Kim H
