Author Biography

Maggie Anderson is a fantasy author and blogger who lives in Chicago with her husband, dog, and snake. She grew up in a western suburb but has totally embraced the city life.After reading The Hobbit and Watership Down, a lifelong passion for fantasy was born. She asked the school librarian about more 'adventure' books like these, and was told they weren't sure about such things, but perhaps she would enjoy an American Girl book (the books with the dolls, for heaven's sake)! She vowed then and there to grow up and write 'adventure' books. Currently, Bilbo's hobbit hole and the wise rabbit leader, Hazel, are tattooed on her arm as an homage. She went to Glenbard East High School in Lombard, Illinois where she enjoyed band, choir, and being a 'techy' in theatre. After graduating, she attended Augustana College (Chi Alpha Pi!) in the Quad Cities where she received a Bachelor of Arts in Biology with minors in Environmental Studies and German. While a student at Augustana she was able to study abroad at the University of Passau in Germany. Her education continued as she obtained a Masters of Science in Environmental Science and Policy at The Johns Hopkins University.While writing full time would be marvelous, her livelihood is secured through her work as an environmental consultant. In her spare time she writes, reads, walks her dog, and makes travel plans. Meanwhile, she doggedly pursues the perfection of her snobbery in the fields of chocolate, coffee, and wine. She takes supreme satisfaction and pride in the art of blending these hobbies and specialties.Find out more about her at maggieandersonauthor.com.
