Bobbi Dempsey

Bobbi Dempsey is a freelance writer and the author of a dozen nonfiction books on topics ranging from poker to real estate investing. She has written for Parade’s print and online editions, and her work has also been featured in The New York Times, Family Circle, The Guardian and other publications. She is currently an editorial fellow at Community Change and a reporting fellow at the Economic Hardship Reporting Project, and is working on a memoir about a definitely-not-boring childhood that involved moving more than 70 times. She has a not-so-secret addiction to bad reality TV shows and believes there's no such thing as having too many puppies or too much ice cream.
