Connie Schultz’s two non-fiction books come from different corners of her life. Life Happens: And Other Unavoidable Truths (2006) draws on her newspaper columns at The Plain Dealer, the work that won her the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary in 2005. The columns cover ordinary life in Cleveland and beyond with a sharp, empathetic eye.
And His Lovely Wife (2007) is a memoir about the 2006 Senate campaign of her husband, Sherrod Brown. Schultz writes about the loss of privacy, the scrutiny of a political spouse, and the strange experience of becoming a public figure through someone else’s ambition.
