Sarah Lacy has reported on startups and venture capital in Silicon Valley for nearly a decade. Her first book, Once You're Lucky, Twice You're Good: The Rebirth of Silicon Valley and Rise of Web 2.0, was published to critical acclaim in the US in May. According to Wired Magazine, "No other recent chronicle delivers such intimate, behind-the-scenes glimpses into Silicon Valley startup life." The UK edition, The Stories of Facebook, Youtube, and Myspace: The People, the Hype and the Deals Behind the Giants of Web 2.0 will debut on November 3.

Lacy is a well -known fixture on the Valley scene. In addition to proper journalism awards, Nick Denton of Gawker called her "the hottest reporter in the tech world-- ever," TechCult called Lacy one of the 100 most famous people on the Web, and Playboy voted her one of the eight sexiest bloggers in the world.

Lacy also writes Valley Girl, a biweekly column for BusinessWeek and co-hosts Tech Ticker on Yahoo! Finance. She lives with her husband in San Francisco.
