A graduate of Yale University, Emily Holleman spent several years as an editor for
Salon
—a job she left to follow Arsinoe and her quest for the throne of Egypt. Currently based in Brooklyn, she has devoted the past three years to reading and writing about the Ptolemies and is, like Arsinoe, a younger sister.
Cleopatra’s Shadows
is her first novel.
