Delia Ephron is the bestselling author, screenwriter, playwright and sister of Nora Ephron. She is the beloved writer of romantic comedies like You’ve Got Mail and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. In 2012 she lost her sister, Nora, and then in 2015 her husband, Jerry, both to cancer. Her latest book, Left on Tenth: A Second Chance at Life, is her radiant memoir that chronicles a series of “left turns, some perilous, some wondrous,” including her own late-in-life love story complete with a tragic second act and joyous resolution.
Ephron lives on Tenth Street in New York City’s Greenwich Village. She explains that the book takes its name from her route to get home: “If you are in Manhattan, traveling downtown on Fifth Avenue or Seventh Avenue, you can turn only left on Tenth Street. It’s a one-way street, west to east. Left on Tenth is my way home. I was left on Tenth when my husband died, and after that, life took many left turns. Some perilous, some wondrous. This book is about all of them.”
