Margaret Littman is both an old-timer and a relative newcomer to Tennessee. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, she left Tennessee for points north over the course of her writing career. But after 17 years she could no longer resist its siren song, so she returned. Today she writes about Tennessee music, Southeast travel, food, pets and more. There's nothing Margaret loves more than telling natives something they didn't know about their home state. And with 75,000 miles on her station wagon already, she has lots of ideas for little-known places to listen to music, eat barbecue, paddle a lake, hike to a waterfall, or buy works by local artists. Margaret's work has appeared in national and regional magazines, including Wine Enthusiast, Entrepreneur, The Tennessean and many others. She is the author of several guidebooks as well as the Nashville Essential Guide. Margaret has loved lots of places she's lived but the day she looked down and realised she was wearing cowboy boots in synagogue, she knew she had become a Tennessean.
