Jonathan Evison    

Bestselling Author Known for "All About Lulu," "Lawn Boy" & "Again and Again"

Jonathan Evison is the New York Times best-selling author of several novels, including "All About Lulu," "West of Here," "The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving," "This is Your Life, Harriet Chance!," "Legends of the North Cascade," and "Lawn Boy" – a sharp-eyed, sidesplittingly funny examination of class divides and white privilege on Bainbridge Island. "The Fundamentals Of Caring" was adapted into a feature film starring Selena Gomez, Paul Rudd, and Craig Roberts. His latest novels include "Small World" and "Again and Again."

A Bainbridge Islander since age eight, Evison worked a number of jobs – landscaper, punk-rock singer, caregiver, radio DJ and telemarketer, among many others – before breaking through at age 40 with his acclaimed debut, "All About Lulu."

Evison divides his time between homes on Bainbridge Island and near Sequim with his wife and three children.
