Early life
She was born in Newton, Massachusetts, the elder daughter of poet Anne Sexton and Alfred Muller "Kayo" Sexton.
Career
In 1994, she wrote her memoirs of growing up with her mother, Searching for Mercy Street: My Journey Back to My Mother, Anne Sexton.
She has also written several novels and edited posthumous editions of her mother's works. She wrote a subsequent memoir, Half in Love: Surviving the Legacy of Suicide, published in January 2011, about which Erica Jong has written "Linda Sexton’s beautiful book is a cry for health and sanity. It will bring hope and understanding because it explains the way suicide blights families from generation to generation.”
