Kate Bacon
Kate Bacon grew up on the banks of the Mississippi River, wanting to be Becky Thatcher and write like Mark Twain. Over the years, she turned to TV to keep a roof over her head and Dr. Pepper in the fridge, heading creative service departments for network affiliates south of the Mason-Dixon line. With the purchase of an Apple laptop, she jumped into the world of blogging about TV people and writing for money from Starbucks locations coast to coast.
