During her career as a director of the Pollock-Krasner House and Study  Center in East Hampton, New York, Helen A. Harrison began writing  mystery novels set in the New York art world. A widely published author  of books and articles on art, she enjoys making up stories in which  fictional characters interact with real people from her own background  and experience as a New York Times art critic, NPR arts commentator,  museum curator and practicing artist. Her second novel, An Accidental  Corpse, won the 2019 Benjamin Franklin Gold Award for Mystery &  Suspense. A New York City native, she and her husband, the artist Roy  Nicholson, live in Sag Harbor with the ghost of Roy’s beloved studio  cat, Mittens.
