Sarah M. Broom is an American writer. Her first book, The Yellow House, is forthcoming from Grove Atlantic in August 2019.[1]. After publishing in a variety of journals, including the New York Times Magazine, the New Yorker, and O, the Oprah Magazine, she received a 1996 Creative Nonfiction Grant from the Whiting Foundation[2]. Broom has also been named a finalist for the New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship in Creative Nonfiction and awarded fellowships at Djerassi Resident Artists Program and the MacDowell Colony[3]. A native of New Orleans, she holds a Masters degree in Journalism from the University of California, Berkeley and has taught at the Columbia University School of the Arts[4]

In advance of its publication, Broom’s debut memoir, The Yellow House, received positive attention from outlets like Publishers Weekly[5] and Kirkus Reviews[6]. Quoting the book itself, Kirkus Reviews opined that The Yellow House reflected the author’s attempt "to reckon with 'the psychic cost of defining oneself by the place where you are from,'" adding that "Broom’s lyrical style celebrates her family bonds, but a righteous fury runs throughout the narrative at New Orleans’ injustices, from the foundation on up."[7]
