  • Mary Dean Cason was born in the heart of the Carolina Bible belt to a Yankee Catholic Opera-singing mother and a Georgia dad who preferred hunting to just about anything. After arriving in Chicago as a flight attendant for Delta Airlines, Cason moved on to writing for a collection of advertising agencies and dabbling in fiction on the side. Her first short story was a finalist in NPR's Stories on Stage and spurred her to enroll in the University of Chicago's Writers Studio. What Solomon Saw and Other Stories is her first book. She is completing a novel set in her hometown of Winston-Salem, NC during the unrest of the 1960s.
