Negeen Papehn was born and raised in southern California, where she currently lives with her husband and two teenage boys. She wasn’t always a writer. A graduate of USC dental school, Negeen just recently retired after fifteen years in the field, leaving behind her patients and drills, for an exciting career in entertainment. Her new gig with the MPA allows her to tap into her creative side, while giving her more time with her family. On her days off, she loves hanging out with friends, drinking wine, cuddling with her puppy, and relaxing in the sunshine.
