Lisa Dickey, a native of Pensacola, Florida, is an American author and ghostwriter. Since 1997, she has worked on more than 20 nonfiction books, in fields ranging from technology to politics to Hollywood memoirs, including ten New York Times bestsellers.[1] In January 2017, St. Martin's Press published her first non-collaborative book, Bears in the Streets: Three Journeys Across a Changing Russia.[2]
Dickey began her writing career in 1994 in St. Petersburg, Russia,[3] where she wrote for The St. Petersburg Press, The Moscow Times,[4] and Russian Life.[5] In 1995, she and photographer Gary Matoso spent three months traveling across Russia, posting photos and stories to The Russian Chronicles, an early Web travelogue.[6]
In 2005, Dickey recreated the 1995 trip with photographer David Hillegas, again traveling across Russia to track down the people she and Matoso had met and report on how their lives had changed. That project – The Russian Chronicles: Ten Years Later – ran for eleven weeks on the Washingtonpost.com website.[7]
In 2010, Dickey married the TV and film writer Randi Barnes.[9] They live in Los Angeles.
