The great author, novelist, writer, humorist Laurie Colwin would have been 70 years old today. Wow, how time flies. Laurie passed away in October 1992 from a silent heart attack, in her sleep. But her many books live on in print, and soon as e books (which she would have hated). Laurie left us with a lot of birthday presents in Happy All the Time, Another Marvelous Thing, A Big Storm Knocked it Over, The Lone Pilgrim. And she’s developed a whole following with her food essays in Home Cooking, and More Home Cooking. Laurie also left behind a wonderful daughter, Rosa Jurjevics, a writer and editor herself.

Happy Birthday, Laurie!
