Amanda Ripley

Author

I'm living in: Washington, DC
About Me:

I am a writer at Time Magazine, where I cover risk, homeland security and assorted other bad news. But I have a new book out that is, I am proud to say, suprisingly optimistic.
My Works:

The Unthinkable combines the stories of survivors with the science of the brain under extreme stress. The idea is to learn how we might do better in the kinds of disasters that are getting more frequent and more expensive around the world.
Interests:

Biking, soccer, reading the newspaper, not reading the newspaper and staring out at cool bodies of water and thinking about what to have for dinner
Favourite Books:

Letting Go by Philip Roth, The Human Factor by Graham Greene, Lying Awake by Mark Salzman, Life of Pi by Yann Martel
Favourite Author:

Graham Greene
Favourite Quote:

"Cities have sexes: London is a man, Paris a woman, and New York a well-adjusted transsexual." —Angela Carter
Favourite Websites:

theunthinkable.com, time.com, slate.com

Knights of the Sea ~ A Grim Tale of Murder, Politics, and Spoon Addiction ~ My latest book is finally out. It's a bit hard to sum up in one line, though the sub-title gives a pretty good idea of the tone...

This is a really fun movie. Fast-paced. Good acting. Kevin Spacey is always excellent at playing a hard-ass. Solid movie.
