Karrine Steffans (born in August, 1978) is a former music video model and author who wrote two books that made the New York Times best seller list[1]: Confessions of a Video Vixen in 2005, The Vixen Diaries in 2007, and "The Vixen Manual: How to Find, Seduce, & Keep the Man You Want" in 2009.
Author
Upon publishing Confessions of a Video Vixen with HarperCollins Publishers[2], Steffans departed on a promotional tour and has been interviewed by many journalists in the world including Bill O'Reilly, Geraldo Rivera, Donnie Deutsch and in April 2006 was a guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Entering the New York Times best selling list at number seven and peaking at number five, Confessions stayed on the list for over twenty weeks in hardcover and spent several more weeks on the list a year and a half later in paperback.
The Vixen Diaries, published by Grand Central Publishing/Hachette Book Group USA (formerly Warner Books)[3], shared a similar fate, entering the New York Times best seller's list at number six in the politically charged fall of 2007, even ahead of Bill Clinton's latest book. The Vixen Diaries read much differently than Confessions of a Video Vixen as it told the story of a woman on the mend, working her way through a less than savory past and into a brighter future.
The Vixen Manual: How to Find, Seduce & Keep the Man You Want debuted on The Today Show the morning of July 13, 2009 and entered the How-To/Self-Help New York Times best sellers list the following week at number seven.
In 2009 she married long time beau, actor, Darius McCrary. They have two children.
