Sparkle Hayter was born in Pouce Coupe, B.C., Canada and raised in Edmonton. In 1980 she ran away to New York City where she ended up in TV news, primarily for CNN. After CNN, she moved to Pakistan and went into Afghanistan with the mujahedin to cover the Afghan war against the Soviets. After one particularly harrowing four-hour trek through a minefield behind some Frenchmen and a flatulent packhorse, she decided to give up full-time journalism. Upon her return to New York City, she, in short order, got married, took up stand-up comedy, sold her first novel, moved to Tokyo, moved back to New York into the fabled Chelsea Hotel, got a divorce, published five more novels, and got a tattoo. She has written for The New York Times Op-Ed page, The Nation and The Toronto Globe and Mail, was a regular panelist on CNN\'s issue-oriented talk show CNN & Company, and has also appeared on Diplomatic License (CNN), Good Day New York, NPR, CBC, BBC and Paris Premiere. She still performs stand-up comedy occasionally, and last appeared at Stand-up New York and Don\'t Tell Mama in Manhattan in 2001. At the moment, she is living in Paris and working on a novel set there. http://www.noexit.co.uk/hayter.htm
