William Kuhn

I'm a novelist, biographer, historian, scribbler, and dabbler. I've helped make commercials about chocolate chip cookies. I've taught history to college students and led dazed kids on London theatre trips. Somehow my first novel MRS QUEEN TAKES THE TRAIN became a national bestseller. It has been optioned for a movie. A second novel PRINCE HARRY BOY TO MAN is out now. I've also written nonfiction on Jackie Kennedy Onassis as a lifelong lover of books in READING JACKIE. My biography of a funny couple who lived with Queen Victoria, HENRY \u0026amp; MARY PONSONBY, was a BBC Radio 4 book of the week. I've played with the question of Benjamin Disraeli's sexuality in THE POLITICS OF PLEASURE. At my most decadent I will put on a pair of cashmere socks. I buy airline tickets on impulse. I wear antique military jackets around the house when no one’s watching. I live in Boston, Massachusetts, and whenever I can in London too.
