Kim Cross is a New York Times best-selling author and journalist known for meticulously reported narrative nonfiction. Her first book, What Stands in a Storm, chronicles the biggest tornado outbreak in history, the April 2011 storm that unleashed 349 tornadoes on 21 states, killing at least 324 people. The book won the American Society of Journalists and Authors nonfiction book award. Her current book is In Light of All Darkness, Inside the Polly Klaas Kidnapping and the Search for America’s Child. Paced like a thriller and full of insider information on the history and science of crime scene investigation, In Light of All Darkness embeds readers in one of the most famous true-crime stories of our generation – the kidnapping of Polly Klaas – a case as pivotal in the history of the FBI as the Unabomber or Oklahoma City bombing. She is the 2024 Recipient of the Truman Capote Prize for Distinguished Work in Literary Non-Fiction.
Additionally, her stories have been recognized in "Best of" lists by the New York Times, the Columbia Journalism Review, The Sunday Longread, Longform, Apple News Audio, and Best American Sports Writing.
