Born in Chevy Chase, Maryland, Ann Brashares was lured away from graduate school by working as an editor in the publishing industry. Her first work of fiction, the wildly successful young adult novel, SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS, spawned a popular series that both teenagers and adults enjoy in droves.
she is a great author and i love her series the sisterhood of the traveling pants, too bad there wasn't more but 3 willows is a start of something like them but not as good.
