Tiffany Jackson

Tiffany Jackson was born and raised in Brooklyn Heights, New York. She knew at four years old she wanted to be a writer, after she spelled the word “nose” correctly all by herself. Her parents moved the family around New York several times when Jackson was a child, and she enjoyed many vacations in Kingston, Jamaica, to stay with her grandparents. She attended Howard University in Washington, D.C., and then earned her master’s degree from The New School in new York. Her degrees are in film and media studies. Her first young adult novel, Allegedly, made it onto several “best of YA” lists after its 2017 publication, as did her novel Monday’s Not Coming. When she’s not writing, Jackson works as a production manager in television. She currently lives in Brooklyn.
