Caroline Paul was born on July 29, 1963 in New York City. She's the
identical twin sister of actress
Alexandra Paul. Caroline grew up in
Connecticut. Paul graduated from Stanford University and originally
planned to be a documentary filmmaker. In her adult life, Caroline has
been an extremely active athlete: she's not only been a white-water
raft guide and a private pilot, but also has competed in the U.S.
Nationals for the sport of Luge, mountain-biked in such places as China
and Vietnam, flown her para-glider in Brazil, sea-kayaked in Alaska,
and skied the back country of Denali and the Sierras. One of the first
women to join the San Francisco Fire Department, Caroline wrote the
book, "Fighting Fire", about her experiences as a firefighter; this
book was published, to great acclaim, in 1998. Her first fiction novel,
"East Wind, Rain", was published in 2006. Her younger brother, Jonathan
Paul, is an animal rights activist and volunteer firefighter in Oregon.
A member of the literary group, the Writers' Grotto, Paul lives in San
Francisco, California with her two cats.
