Abigail Jones Biography

Abigail Jones is the co-author with Marissa Miley of the New York Times and Boston Globe best-seller Restless Virgins: Love, Sex, and Survival at a New England Prep School (William Morrow). The shocking book exposed the sexual behaviors of privileged teens on the campus of an elite New England prep school and sounded a clarion call about the new era of sexual promiscuity. It received critical recognition in the New York Times Book Review, O the Oprah Magazine, the Boston Globe, Boston Magazine, and on Time.com, among other publications. Jones and Miley appeared on the Today Show, Star Jones, Inside Edition, NPR, numerous radio shows across the country, and gave several talks about the book. Jones has also spoken about Restless Virgins at national conferences. Jones and Miley can be booked together or separately.

Based on hundreds of interviews with students who graduated from Milton Academy in June, 2005, Jones and Miley (both Milton graduates) follow a small group of young women and men (pseudonymously) through their careers at Milton, careers that witnessed a scandal resulting in several expulsions that were covered in regional and national media.

Jones and Miley provide an intimate, sensitive depiction of the struggle of today’s teens and the way they can succumb to the myriad pressures assaulting them from all angles. By telling the story of Milton Academy’s sex scandal through the eyes of those who were there, Jones and Miley shine a penetrating light on the drama and emotions of the students’ social and sexual lives.

Before writing Restless Virgins, Jones was a staff editor at the Atlantic Monthly. She has a Masters in creative writing, with Distinction, from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, and she graduated from Dartmouth College in 2003, cum laude with Honors in English. She received a James B. Reynolds Fellowship from Dartmouth for graduate study abroad. Jones attended the Southampton Writers Conference in August 2007, and the Columbia Publishing Course in 2005. She lives in Boston.
