Marissa Meyer
Marissa Meyer is an American novelist, children's writer, and science fiction writer born on February 19, 1984, in Tacoma.
Meyer was educated at Pacific Lutheran University and has worked in roles that include both writing and literary editing. She writes in English, and her fiction is directed at younger audiences as well as science fiction readers. Her debut novel, Cinder, was published in 2012, marking the beginning of her career as a novelist.
Cinder is the opening entry in The Lunar Chronicles, the series most closely associated with her name. The series represents the core of her published work and the body of fiction through which she has established herself as a children's and science fiction writer. Her background as a literary editor accompanies her identity as a novelist, though the specifics of that editorial work are not elaborated in available records.
The consistent markers of Meyer's writing life are her dual occupations as writer and literary editor, her orientation toward children's fiction and science fiction, and her American identity rooted in Tacoma. It is with The Lunar Chronicles — the series that began with that 2012 debut — that her work as a novelist finds its most concrete expression.
