Chelsea Snow Cain (born 1972) is an American novelist and columnist. ==Early life== Cain was born February 5, 1972 in Iowa City, Iowa, to Mary Cain and Larry Schmidt.〔''Dharma Girl'' (1996)〕 Cain spent her early childhood on a hippie commune outside of Iowa City. Her father resisted the Vietnam draft and her parents lived "underground" for several years. In 1978, she moved with her mother to Bellingham, Washington, where she attended Lowell Elementary School, Fairhaven Middle School, and Sehome High School.〔 She spent the school year in Bellingham with her mother and the summers in Florida with her father and stepmother and stepbrother. Cain left Bellingham after high school to study political science at the University of California, Irvine, where she wrote for the ''New University'' newspaper and became the opinion editor. After graduating in 1994, she attended the graduate school of journalism at the University of Iowa. While at Iowa, she wrote a weekly column for ''The Daily Iowan''. Her master's thesis at the University of Iowa became ''Dharma Girl'', a memoir about Cain's early childhood on the hippie commune. One of her professors presented it to several editors for review, and Seal Press picked it up as Cain's first published work. She was 24 years old. She traveled across the United States on book tour with ''Dharma Girl'', living for a brief period in Portland, Oregon and then in New York City. After a year in New York, she returned to Portland, and edited an anthology for Seal Press titled ''Wild Child: Girlhoods in the Counterculture''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chelsea Cain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
