Über den Autor
Simone Corday danced at the Mitchell Brothers O'Farrell Theater in San Francisco during the 1980s, when it was a countercultural hot spot where gonzo writer Hunter Thompson was the honorary Night Manager. She was a girlfriend of porn king Artie Mitchell from 1982 until he was killed by his brother Jim in 1991. She also worked for the Mitchell Brothers booking agent for two years. Corday was interviewed about the Mitchell Brothers, including on an E!-True Hollywood Story. Her pieces relating to her friend Hunter Thompson appear on Marty Flynn's Hunter Thompson resource site HSTBOOKS.ORG. Her book 9 ¿ Years Behind the Green Door, A Memoir: A Mitchell Brothers Stripper Remembers Her Lover Artie Mitchell, Hunter S. Thompson, and the Killing That Rocked San Francisco was published in 2007. She has an MA in English from the University of California. She has worked a variety of jobs and lived in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1975. Simone Corday is her pen name. Before writing Alice In Ultraland, Corday did research, visited sites in the book, and watched burlesque shows. She lives in San Francisco with two impish rescue cats. This is her second book.
