Anna Todd is an American author and producer focused on contemporary romance and new adult fiction. She is best known for the After series, which began as fan fiction on Wattpad and became an international bestseller and film franchise. Her work has drawn more than a billion reads online.

Биография и Путь Автора

Anna Todd emerged from circumstances far removed from the conventional literary path. An Ohio native, she married shortly after high school, moved to Texas with her husband during his Army service, attended community college in Killeen, and worked a string of jobs, including at a makeup counter and an IRS processing center. What remained constant was reading. By her own account and later publisher biographies, she was an avid reader before she was a professional writer, and the sense of isolation she felt in military-town life pushed her toward online communities where books, music fandom, and conversation were always available.
