Lois Duncan Steinmetz Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Lois Duncan was born on April 28, 1934 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA as Lois Duncan Steinmetz. She is a writer, known for I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998) and Hotel for Dogs (2009). She has been married to Don Arquette since 1963. They have two children.
[in 1997] A movie loosely based upon my novel, "I Know What You Did Last Summer", opened in theaters around the country [I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)]. I was ecstatic until I settled into a theater seat with my box of popcorn and discovered that Hollywood had turned my teenage suspense story into a slasher film. The setting had been changed from the mountains of New Mexico to a fishing village on the East Coast, so an insane fisherman, who wasn't in my book, could decapitate my characters with an ice hook. The first thing I did after leaving the theater was phone our daughter Kerry and warn her not to let the grandchildren see it.
