After growing up in the 1950’s and 60’s outside of Boston and studying media at Northwestern University and Emerson College, Joanne Greene spent decades on San Francisco radio as a news anchor and talk show host. Currently, her memoir style micro-essays, set to music, can be heard on the podcast, “In This Story…with Joanne Greene”. Her sometimes provocative and always informative conversations with Gabi Moskowitz, a fellow writer, thirty years her junior, are on the podcast, “All the F Words.” By Accident: A Memoir of Letting Go, is Joanne’s debut book, published in June 2023 by She Writes Press. She lives in Marin County, California with her husband and creative partner since 1980, and their damn near perfect Goldendoodle. Both sons, their wives, and two grandchildren, with another on the way, are thriving in Los Angeles.
