L. E. Stewart grew up in Tennessee, surrounded by horses and cows....literally. After she got a B.F.A in filmmaking and writing from the Savannah College of Art and Design, she moved to California, where she currently works as a writer and as a prop master for films and web series.

The View From Here is (very loosely) based on her time spent working as a wrangler on a dude ranch in Wyoming.

Her next book, Famous, will be based in the world of her current career, working as a prop master on some very strange and interesting films.
