Summary

Isabel Klee is the author of Dogs, Boys, and Other Things I’ve Cried About, which recently hit number one on the New York Times best-seller list. However, before writing her debut book, Klee graduated from college with a degree in English language and literature, and shortly after, began working as an assistant to a dog photographer. During this time, she also began creating content related to her own foster dogs on social media. After working for the photographer for seven years, she was unexpectedly let go and pivoted to freelance content creation and dedicated more time to her own growing social media presence. Her content about rehabilitating foster dogs captured the hearts of many, and today, she has over a million followers on TikTok. She eventually stopped freelancing to focus full-time on both her own platform and writing her debut book, which was released in April of this year. Her memoir is now being developed into a TV series, in which Klee will serve as an executive producer.
