Emma Forrest

Achieving success as a writer before she was even out of high school, author Emma Forrest became a famous name in her native Britain at age 16 as the author of the Sunday Times weekly column "Generation X." Born in London to an American mother, Forrest soon made use of her dual citizenship and moved to New York, where she would continue working as a writer for publications like Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar, Time Out, The Guardian, NME, Interview and Blackbook. Though she struggled with mental illness-eventually seeking treatment for bipolar and borderline personality disorder, which had manifested in a self-professed addiction to self-mutilation-Forrest's success as an author would continue to rise as she published her first novel, Namedropper, in 1998. It was followed by Thin Skin in 2002 and Cherries in the Snow in 2005. After addressing some of her own experiences in the anthology Damage Control - Women on the Therapists, Beauticians, and Trainers Who Navigate Their Bodies, which she both edited and contributed to, Forrest delved even deeper into first-person nonfiction, publishing the memoir Your Voice In My Head in 2011, which discussed her sometime relationship with actor Colin Farrell, as well as the death of her therapist. In 2017, having completed a number of screenplays that had been optioned but not yet produced, Forrest decided to branch out even further and bring one of her scripts to the screen herself, writing and directing the film "Untogether" starring actor Jemima Kirke.
