Miranda Neville

Miranda Neville grew up in Wiltshire in southwest England. During her misspent youth she devoured the works of Georgette Heyer, Jean Plaidy and any other historical novels she could lay hands on. As a result she attended the University of Oxford to study history, ignoring all hints that economics might be a more practical subject. She spent several years writing catalogues of rare books and original letters and manuscripts for Sotheby's auction house in London and New York. Much of her time in this job was spent reading the personal correspondence of the famous. She now lives in beautiful rural Vermont with her daugher Becca, a college student and confirmed drama queen.
