BIO

Kathy Witt is an award-winning travel and lifestyle writer whose travels take her all over the world to share its stories. Favorite sights include the glaciers of Alaska; fjords of Norway; castles of Russia; and the small towns of America, including Salem, aka "Witch City."

 

Kathy writes a monthly syndicated travel column for Tribune News Service, is a regular contributor to Kentucky Living, Georgia, Southern Living, Long Weekends and Real Food Traveler, among others. She is a member of Society of American Travel Writers and Authors Guild.

 

Her writing has led to many cherished experiences and memories, including glacier walking in the foothills of Denali, being a Guardian on an Honor Flight from Louisville, KY to Washington D.C., and attending the 70th Anniversary Re-Premiere of Gone With the Wind, hosted by the Marietta Gone With the Wind Museum, where she got to enjoy the company of actress Ann Rutherford ("Carreen O'Hara") and the "Three Beaus" – Mickey Kuhn, Patrick Curtis and Greg Giese.

 

Kathy has written other books as well, including 26 children's storybooks for Malaysia's ESL program. A favorite project she has worked on many times over the years is the Kentucky Visitors Guide. Kentucky is a beautiful place to visit - with picturesque small towns, unique attractions, great food and lots and LOTS of bourbon distilleries.

 

Books in the works: 100 Things to Do in Kentucky Before You Die and a true crimes book about headline grabbing murders in Kentucky.
