Diane McKinney-Whetstone is the author of eight novels including best-selling Tumbling and the soon to be released Family Spirit. She mines the city of Philadelphia for her material; the blocks and neighborhoods themselves become characters as she tells stories of everyday people existing in families and communities--faltering, falling, climbing, and reaching for their better selves. Twice awarded the American Library Association Black Caucus Literary Award for Fiction, she is also a recipient of a Pennsylvania Council on the Arts grant. Her work has appeared in the Atlantic, Essence Magazine, Philadelphia Magazine, and the Philadelphia Inquirer. She is a past lecturer in the writing program at the University of Pennsylvania. She and her husband Greg live in the Philadelphia area.
