Today’s Hungry Author conversation is with Kate Moore, author of The Radium Girls and The Woman They Could Not Silence. Kate shares how she learned to trust herself as a writer and take every opportunity she could to learn new skills. Her career started in editing, but she quickly transitioned to ghostwriting, acting, and finally writing her own narrative nonfiction books. She uses her experience to research and represent the stories of forgotten women of history, a gift for all of us as readers and writers.
