A native of the West Bank of New Orleans, Rosey Lee now lives in Atlanta, where she penned her debut novel, The Gardins of Edin, and its upcoming sequel, A Gardin Wedding, releasing May 13th. This heartwarming series weaves the traditions, flavors, and music of her Louisiana roots into tales of complicated families and complex friendships, always leaving the reader with a feel-good ending. Her essays have also appeared in Writer’s Digest, The Nerd Daily, and Deep South Magazine, earning praise wherever Southern storytelling is loved.By day, Rosey Lee's alter ego is a physician who practices medicine with the lofty goal of championing community based approaches to health equity. And when she’s not crafting hopeful stories, you’ll find her cooking up a Southern feast, arranging fresh blooms, or indulging in fanatical bargain shopping. And all of that sounds amazing! Join us as we explore her inspiration behind the Gardins of Edin series, and how she balances life as both storyteller and healer.
