Chrysta BiltonChrysta Bilton found out in her mid-twenties that her family was much more complicated and much larger than she ever could have imagined: she was the first of dozens, possibly hundreds, of siblings resulting from her father's secret life as a perm donor. Bilton graduated from Barnard College in New York and studied classical drawing and painting at the Florence Academy of Art. She currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband, the writer Nick Bilton; their two children, Emerson and Somerset; their dogs, Pixel and Pine Cone; and their cat, Piano. She runs her own public relations firm. Normal Family is Bilton's first book. Read More Read Less
