Mary Karr

Mary Karr (born January 16, 1955) is an American poet, essayist and memoirist. She rose to fame in 1995 with the publication of her bestselling memoir ''The Liars' Club''.

==Memoirs==
Her memoir ''The Liars' Club'', published in 1995, was a ''New York Times'' bestseller for over a year, and was named one of the year's best books. It delves vividly and often humorously into her deeply troubled childhood, most of which was spent in a gritty industrial section of Southeast Texas in the 1960s. She was encouraged to write her personal history by her friend Tobias Wolff, but has said she only took up the project when her marriage fell apart.〔(Salon Magazine Interview, May, 1997 )〕
She followed the book with another memoir, ''Cherry'' (2000), about her late adolescence and early womanhood.
A third memoir, ''Lit: A Memoir'', which she says details "my journey from blackbelt sinner and lifelong agnostic to unlikely Catholic,"〔(New York Times, "Stray Questions For Mary Karr", July 6, 2007 )〕 came out in November 2009. She writes about her time as an alcoholic and the salvation she found in her conversion to Catholicism. She does, however, describe herself as a cafeteria Catholic.
