Nan Temkin Dudley has been writing since she could hold a pencil… short stories, often humorous and autobiographical, a lifetime of poetry and songs, eight screenplays (including two novel adaptations), newspaper and magazine articles and a children’s book. After editing other people’s books and columns for more than a decade, she and her writing partner decided to write their first screenplay into this novel.
Nan was a dancer and an actress. She owned several dance and theater companies in California and Hawaii, producing and performing for thirty years. She taught Yoga for decades. She is an avid reader and lives with her husband overlooking the glorious Kona coast. It was here that she met Katina Le Kerr, who dressed her for the movie Waterworld. One day, sitting on the set with fake bombs blasting all around them, Katina said, “There aren’t enough female action heroes.” Nan responded, “I met one. She was a World War II spy, and she commanded me to write her life story.”
Katina was all in, so they set out traveling the world from Malta to London, New York, Switzerland and the Caribbean, tracking the life of their beguiling, inspiring heroine. The Nearest Thing to Heaven is a joint venture.
