"Writers write and researchers research. But Cathy Griffin is one of those rare few who combines the dogged energy and boundless curiosity of a dedicated researcher with the storytelling sense of a gifted writer. In my thirty years as a television writer/producer, no one has helped me accumulate facts—and broaden my sense of how to turn those facts into drama—more than Cathy has." 
—Emmy Award Winner Stephen Kronish, writer/executive producer: "The Kennedys" and "The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe"
"Cathy has worked on every one of my 15 New York Times bestsellers and has always done an incredible job of not only tracking down people who have never before been interviewed but also convincing them to talk. This isn't always easy."
— J. Randy Taraborrelli, NY Times bestselling author, executive producer, screenwriter: Grace & Steel, Jackie, Janet & Lee, The Kennedy Heirs Elizabeth Taylor, Jackie, Ethel, Joan: ​Women of Camelot, After Camelot, Becoming Beyoncé, Grace Kelly, and Michael Jackson
"There is no one more savvy about connecting the dots between theories and facts than Cathy Griffin. Her intuition is flawless, and her tireless spadework produces viable and credible stories. I relied not only on her superior research abilities, but her keen advisory input, when putting together my biographies of Warren Beatty and Jack Nicholson. Cathy came up with astonishingly revealing interviews with a number of LA beauties and rich jet-setters that brought my book to vibrant life with the kind of fresh, vivid, and exclusive material dear to the heart of every book editor."
— Biographer Ellis Amburn, the former editorial director of G.P. Putnam's Sons; editor in chief of the Delacorte Press; vice president and executive editor of Putnam subsidiary Coward McCann; and senior editor of William Morrow
"I much admire the knack of Cathy to find elusive people and get them to open up to her."
— Bestselling Author James Spada,
