Kate White is the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of seventeen novels of suspense: nine standalone psychological thrillers, including "The Secrets You Keep," "The Second Husband," and "Between Two Strangers" (May ‘23), and eight "Bailey Weggins" mysteries. She has authored a total of 16 novels, which have been published in over 13 languages.

For fourteen years, White served as the editor-in-chief of Cosmopolitan, which under her leadership became the most successful magazine in single copy sales in the U.S. She increased circulation by 30 percent during her tenure and was instrumental in expanding the brand, including Cosmopolitan.com and Cosmo Books. Though she loved her magazine career, she decided to leave ten years ago to concentrate full-time on another passion: writing suspense fiction.

White’s first mystery, "If Looks Could Kill," was an instant New York Times bestseller, a Kelly Ripa Book Club pick, and a #1 bestseller on Amazon. She has received and been nominated for many awards in her media career, including an International Thriller Writers Award. In addition to her novels, White is a New York Times bestselling author of several influential books for women on leadership, work, and success, such as "The Gutsy Girl Handbook" and "Why Good Girls Don’t Get Ahead but Gutsy Girls Do."

White is a frequent speaker at libraries, book conferences, and organizations, and has also appeared on many television shows, including The Today Show, CBS This Morning, Morning Joe, and Good Morning America. She holds a certificate from the Harvard Business School Executive Education Women’s Leadership Forum and was awarded an honorary doctorate of letters from Union College, where she delivered the 2022 commencement speech. Her insights into career development have been featured in Forbes.com and HBR.com, and CEOworld.com has recognized her as one of "The 15 Best Career Experts to Follow on Twitter."
