Talk:Kass Morgan/@comment-27794543-20181030023644/@comment-27794543-20181030070601

In her latest book's acknowledgements, she mentions three relatives with surname Kass (father Sam Henry Kass, brother Petey Kass, and grandmother Nance Kass), so Kass is likely her birth surname. From that it reasonable to guess that the name "Kass Morgan" is a pen name. Morgan might be her married surname (though she does not mention a spouse) – it's not unusual for women to change their middle name to their maiden surname when marrying, thus making Kass her legal middle name. Or she may have decided to swap name order for her pen name with her real name being Morgan Kass. Or Morgan is not part of her legal name and is just for the pen name.

She also mentions three relatives with surname Bloom (mother Marcia Bloom, uncle Peter Bloom, and second grandmother Nicky Bloom) but since she doesn't use Bloom that doesn't help determine things.

Either way, I was just a bit surprised reading her father's name since I had assumed Kass Morgan to be her real name.
