Careful, Mr. Media! All Men Are Cremated Equal author Elizabeth Fournier is coming for you!



After she got over her dream of being a Solid Gold Dancer, Elizabeth Fournier, author of All Men Are Cremated Equal: My 77 Blind Dates, promptly headed into the local funeral home and asked for a job, any job. She became the live-in night keeper which meant she resided in a trailer in the far reaches of a large, hilly cemetery and slept with a shotgun near her bed. It was the scariest summer of her life.

She is currently the voice of the autopsy exhibit in the forensic wing at the United States National Museum of Medicine and a full-time mortician. She is also a ballroom dance instructor at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. But she couldn't resist writing the story of her unusual method of dating that led her to the love of her life.
