Laura Cunningham can trace her Memphis roots back six generations. She developed an interest in ghost stories and folklore while working in local museums and libraries. Sharing stories with her coworkers inspired her first book, Haunted Memphis. Her second book, Lost Memphis, was published the following year. Laura is the mother of two amazing children, Eli and Vivian, born ten years apart. When she is not writing books about the history of Memphis, her interests include genealogy, DIY projects and a mild to moderate obsession with True Crime.
