Carol Kline: #1 New York Times Best Selling Author

Carol Kline has been an author, editor, and ghostwriter for more than 20 years. During that time, she’s co-authored a dozen books with some of the world’s top transformational leaders - including 6 of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books with Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen. She's also collaborated with Marci Shimoff, Lisa Nichols, and Gay Hendricks. Five of those books went on to become New York Times bestsellers. Carol has sold more than 5 million books and her work has been translated into 30 languages.

Inspired by her experience writing Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul in 1997, Carol became deeply involved in animal rescue work and helped run and build an animal shelter called Noah's Ark Animal Foundation in Fairfield, IA. She now lives in Ojai, California with her husband and one very elderly dog gentleman.
