## Bio

Joanne Rowling conceived Harry Potter in 1990, then spent seven years watching her mother die, divorcing, raising a daughter alone, and living in relative poverty before Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone reached print in 1997. Six sequels followed through 2007; Forbes named her the world's highest-paid author in 2008. The books spawned 84 translations and a global film-and-game empire. She writes crime fiction as Robert Galbraith and has given over $200 million to medical research, at-risk women and children, and Labour Party efforts against Scottish independence and Brexit. In 2019 she began posting opposition to gender self-identification and trans women in women's toilets, donating to the gender-critical group For Women Scotland and drawing anger from fans who grew up on her work.
