Writing was not Bennett's early focus. She attended Wayne State University, and then the University of Michigan, as a musical theater major. She worked frequently as an actress, doing national musical tours, regional theater productions including Mark Medoff's When You Comin' Back, Red Ryder? and a well-reviewed turn in the off-Broadway revival of Tennessee Williams' Twenty-Seven Wagons Full of Cotton. She headed her own improv comedy trio, Zaniac, and performed as a vocalist, singing backup for John Mellencamp and in her play, Honk Tonk Angels.
Bennett's favorite non-writing activities are reading (memoirs, medical mysteries, and show-biz stories), film, theater, cooking, politics, and Internet shopping. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, writer Jeff Gottesfeld, and son. Her pseudonyms are C.J. Anders, and Carrie Austen. Along with other writers, she has been linked to Zoey Dean as well.
Her father was a writer for such shows as The Twilight Zone, Route 66, and Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows.
