Elizabeth Brundage is the author of five novels. Her latest, The Vanishing Point, grew out of her love of photography and the ways in which the photographs we make reflect some aspect of who we are. Her previous novel, All Things Cease to Appear, was a WSJ best mystery of 2016 and was the basis for the Netflix film Things Heard and Seen. She is a graduate of the Iowa Writers Workshop where she received a James Michener Award, and attended the American Film Institute in Los Angeles. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times Book Review, Witness, New Letters, Greensboro Review and elsewhere. She has taught at several colleges and universities, most recently at Skidmore College, where she was a visiting writer in residence, and lives with her family in Albany, New York.
