By Caitlyn Smylie (SHS)

Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Amy Gutman spent her growing up years in Indianapolis, Indiana. From there, she went to Boston, Massachusetts to attend Harvard. Her degree in journalism was put to use soon after she graduated magna cum laude when she moved to Washington D.C. and took a job with the Wilson Quarterly. After just a year there, she moved her talent to Nashville’s Tennessean, where she spent two years before going to Mississippi. While in Mississippi, Gutman first worked in Greenwood, and then Jackson, where she became Capitol Correspondent for a number of Mississippi papers.

She was persuaded to take a break from journalism to work in Mississippi’s educational system by the state's higher education commission By Caitlyn Smylie (SHS)

Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Amy Gutman spent her growing up years in Indianapolis, Indiana. From there, she went to Boston, Massachusetts to attend Harvard. Her degree in journalism was put to use soon after she graduated magna cum laude when she moved to Washington D.C. and took a job with the Wilson Quarterly. After just a year there, she moved her talent to Nashville’s Tennessean, where she spent two years before going to Mississippi. While in Mississippi, Gutman first worked in Greenwood, and then Jackson, where she became Capitol Correspondent for a number of Mississippi papers.

She was persuaded to take a break from journalism to work in Mississippi’s educational system by the state's higher education commissioner. She became the founding director of the Mississippi Teacher Corps, which is a nationally-acclaimed program that recruits outstanding college graduates to teach in rural Mississippi schools. Following her three successful years in the state of Mississippi, Gutman decided to return to Harvard to obtain a law degree. After passing the bar, she worked at two law firms in Manhattan before quitting in order to make time to write ("Industry Interview: Amy Gutman"). That decision turned out to be a wise choice. Now Amy divides her time between Massachusetts and New York City, where she is a member of the Bar Association’s Lawyers in Transition Committee.Amy Gutman

Gutman had previously tried her hand at writing but gave up, dissatisfied with the results. Once she left the law practice, however, she forced herself to utilize her experience in journalism and forced herself to write. The result was her first novel, Equivocal Death, which is about Harvard Law School grad Kate Paine, who works at the Manhattan offices of Samson & Mills, the nation's most powerful law firm. The novel received wonderful reviews and was soon followed by The Anniversary, another work which has been well received.. A fairly-new writer on the scene, Gutman’s work is eliciting predictions of a great future in the business. ...more
