I am the author of four books:

The New York Times bestselling memoir about relationship abuse, Crazy Love
The anthology Mommy Wars

My latest memoir, The Naked Truth, which explores female sexuality, self-esteem and dating after 50.

One of the best things I ever did was from 2006-2008 I wrote over 500 columns for the Washington Post’s popular on-line work/family column, “On Balance.”

I have a BA in English from Harvard College. My first job was writing for Seventeen Magazine.

Quotes by Leslie Morgan Steiner  (?)

“If there is one thing the psychic taught me, it's that people and events are rarely who and what we think they are. They are more meaningful, more worth our attention-part of some finely choreographed, eternal dance that we would be wise to bow down before in gratitude and humility.”
Leslie Morgan Steiner, Crazy Love

“I am so sorry for you, Leslie.' She said it like she really meant it. But not like she was completely surprised. 'And for him. Because he's lost you now.' This last part undid me. Despite her cruel criticism of me over the years, from where she sat, I was anyone and everyone's prize.”
Leslie Morgan Steiner, Crazy Love

“I know you love him, Leslie. But you can’t sacrifice everything you’ve worked for, just for a man. This is Feminism 101. You know that already.”
Leslie Morgan Steiner, Crazy Love
