Nora had given Piper’s name to the authorities, which had resulted in her being charged as a co-conspirator. That May, US customs officials appeared at their home to tell Piper that she was indicted on conspiracy charges related to her old drug smuggling activities. The happy couple moved to New York City for work in 1998. He was not the risk-seeking, hip, bohemian type she had traditionally been attracted to, but he was good-hearted, kind, and loved her intensely-and Piper found, this was all she ever wanted. She landed a job as a television producer and editor, working primarily on infomercials and met and fell in love with a man named Larry. Piper began a more conventional, risk-free life, glad to have put her criminal past behind her. Ultimately, Piper ended her relationship with Nora and cut off all ties with her. Nora thought little of putting Piper at great legal and physical risk if it meant more profit for the drug smuggling operation. She knew that Nora was untrustworthy, dangerous, and fully willing to exploit her for her own advantage.

Piper was a privileged, well-educated white woman from an upper-middle-class family.Shortly after graduating college in the early 1990s, Piper became involved with her girlfriend Nora Jansen’s international drug smuggling operation. Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women’s Prison is a memoir by Piper Kerman, detailing her experiences as an inmate at a federal women’s prison, where she served for just over a year.
