Mary-Lou Stephens was born in Tasmania, studied acting at The
Victorian College of the Arts and played in bands in Melbourne,
Hobart and Sydney. Eventually she got a proper job - in radio,
where she was a presenter and music director, first with commercial
radio and then with the ABC.
She received rave reviews for her memoir Sex, Drugs and Meditation
(2013), the true story of how meditation changed her life, saved
her job and helped her find a husband. The Australian called her
debut novel, The Last of the Apple Blossom (2021), 'an outstanding
historical novel about women and the secrets and burdens they
carry.'
Mary-Lou has worked and played all over Australia. Now she's
travelling the world with her husband, slowly, and writing,
mostly.
