About Kimberley

Kimberley Tait was born and raised in Toronto, Canada, and moved to the U.S. to attend Dartmouth College, where she was an English and Government double major and wrote an Honors Thesis on life as a staged performance in the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Her thesis—along with her experiences working at investment banks in New York and London—inspired her debut novel FAKE PLASTIC LOVE. A Canadian, Swiss, and American tri-citizen, Kimberley lives in New Hampshire with her husband and Welsh terrier Henry.

Kimberley’s great loves include:

Terriers with attitudes, bygone eras, book collecting, long-distance running, old jazz standards, escaping into the mountains, hiking, skiing, corresponding by paper, sharpened no. 2 pencils, symmetry, second chances, postage stamps, impeccable punctuation (shoutout to the em-dash—ChatGPT will not curb my life passion!), cursive handwriting, melancholy playlists, gentlemanly conduct, going sockless, dreaming of the time before, giving everything the old College try.
