Gwen Cooper is the New York Times bestselling author of the memoir "Homer's Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned About Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat" and the novels "Love Saves the Day" and "Diary of a South Beach Party Girl." She is a frequent speaker at shelter fundraisers; donates 10% of her royalties from "Homer's Odyssey" to organizations that serve abused, abandoned, and disabled pets; and serves on the Advisory Boards of Tabby's Place in Ringoes, NJ and Tree House Humane in Chicago. Gwen lives in Manhattan with her husband, Laurence. She also lives with her three perfect cats--Homer, Clayton, and Fanny--who aren't impressed with any of it.
