Peg Cochran
Pseudonym: Meg London.
Peg grew up in a New Jersey suburb about 25 miles outside of
New York City. After college, she moved to the City where
she managed an art gallery owned by the son of the artist
Henri Matisse. When her first daughter, Francesca, arrived,
the new family moved back to the New Jersey suburbs where
her second daughter, Annabelle, was born.
After her husband died, Peg remarried and her new husband
took a job in Grand Rapids, MI where they now live (on exile
from NJ, she likes to joke). Peg managed to segue from the
art world to marketing and is now the manager of marketing
communications for a company that provides services to seniors.
Her greatest love though has always been
writing—particularly mysteries! She has two cozy
mystery series debuting from Berkley Prime Crime—the
Gourmet De-Lite series set in Connecticut and
featuring Gigi Fitzgerald who provides gourmet diet meals to
a select group of clients, and the Sweet Nothings Vintage
Lingerie series, written as Meg London, set in Paris, TN
with Emma Taylor who finds murder and mayhem in this quiet
country town.
As for pets — she has a schizophrenic cat (really)
named Frazzle and a Westhighland White Terrier, Reggie, who
is desperately in need of losing a few pounds. But you know
what they say: If your dog is overweight, it means YOU
aren’t getting enough exercise!
When she’s not writing, Peg can usually be found
cooking, which she loves. When asked to bring a dish to a
potluck she invariably opts to bring dessert — partly
because she loves making sweet dishes and partly because she
and her husband always manage to be late so there—s no
point in putting them in charge of the appetizer!
