Julie Garwood born 1944 in Kansas City, Missouri, and she is an American writer of over twenty-seven romance novels in both the historical and suspense subgenres. Over thirty-five million copies of her books are in print, and she has had at least 24 New York Times Bestsellers. She has also written a novel for young adults called "A Girl Named Summer".
Garwood took a Russian history course and became intrigued by history, choosing to pursue a double major in history and nursing. A professor, impressed by the quality of her essays, convinced Garwood to write. The result was a children's book, A Girl Named Summer, and her first historical novel, Gentle Warrior.
Garwood began attending local writers' conferences, where she soon met an agent. The agent sold her historical novel, and soon the publisher requested more historical romances.
