Journeying Home is Ms. Nydam's debut novel. An English major at Yale (magna cum laude with distinction), Ms. Nydam won the Yale Schoenberg Prize for writing. She continued her education at Georgetown University Law Center, where she was Managing Editor of the Law Journal, earning a J.D. (magna cum laude) and practicing law for several years. She and her husband have lived all over the United States as well as in Thailand, where their twin boys were born. She can still speak enough Thai to be quite a hit among the staff at Thai restaurants! Ms. Nydam is also a singer, with several solo albums and performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Sydney Opera House to her credit. In her spare time, she loves cycling, skiing and working on her acoustic guitar skills.
