John Grogan
was formerly editor in chief of “Organic Gardening”
magazine, he is currently an award-winning columnist for the
Philadelphia Inquirer.
After his beloved dog of 12 years, a 97 pound Labrador
retriever Marley, passed away, he wrote a loving tribute.
Because of the overwhelming response of his readers, he
wrote his first book “Marley & Me: Life and Love with the
World’s Worst Dog”, which became a #1 international
best-seller with 3 million copies in print and rights sold
in more than two dozen languages.
Written as a memoir, this funny and insightful book has
earned the 2006 Quill Award for Biography/Memoir. His most
recent children’s book “Bad Dog, Marley!” has spent the last
couple of weeks at # 1 on the New York Times children’s
picture-book list.
