Joy Fielding currently lives in Toronto, Canada, and also spends alot of time in Florida.
After Joy graduated in 1966, with a BA in English literature, she went into acting full-time, where she moved to Los Angeles and acted in an episode of Gunsmoke and got to kiss Elvis Presley. She eventually returned to Toronto and went back to her love, writing novels.
Her favourite book she has written to date is See Jane Run, although her other particular favorites are Don't Cry Now, The Deep End, The Other Woman and my latest novel, Missing Pieces.
Joy tends to give her main characters professions that she understands, such as teaching, bank teller, housewife etc. She had to do an enormous amount of research for the character of Jess Koster in Tell Me No Secrets, because she had no idea what an assistant state's attorney actually did. This is why most of her books deal more with domestic horror than the world of business.
