Monica Holloway is the critically acclaimed author of the memoir "Driving With Dead People," described by Newsweek as "unforgettable," Glamour christened this work "a classic," and the Washington Post deemed it "irresistible." Holloway contributed to the anthology "The Bigger the Better the Tighter the Sweater" and "Mommy Wars," from which her essay "Red Boots and Cole Haans" was described by Newsday as "brilliant, grimly hilarious." Holloway’s new bestselling memoir, "Cowboy & Wills," is the story of her lovable, brilliant autistic son, Wills, and the remarkable dog that coaxes him into the world. PEOPLE magazine commented: "Readers would do well to listen to this sweet and heartbreaking tale of boy-dog love. There are so many of us, with or without autism, who have our animals to thank for helping us connect." The Washington Post called "Cowboy & Wills" "charming" and the author "forthright and winning." "Cowboy & Wills" is the prestigious Mom’s Choice Awards® Gold Recipient for 2010. Monica is an official spokesperson for the National Center for Family Literacy and Autism Speaks, raising awareness and participation for two issues she cares about deeply as a mother and author. She is the recipient of 2011 Women of Distinction Award from the Special Needs Network for work in the community. Holloway lives in Los Angeles with her family and two golden retrievers, a hamster, four hermit crabs, three dumpy frogs, two rabbits and six neon tetras.
