For years, Amy Neswald worked as a wigmaster on the Broadway production of Jersey Boys, as well as several other players. She was among the last people the actors would see before they stepped on the stage, and she has so many cool stories from her time in that world. 

Part of that experience led to the creation of I Know You Love Me, Too, a collection of linked stories that’s already won the New American Fiction Prize despite being released less than two months ago. And because Amy likes to keep herself busy, she’s also a screenwriter and teaches creative writing at the University of Maine in Farmington.
