Biography

[edit]

Born in Lancaster, England, Baldry studied at Manchester University and St Anne's College, Oxford. She worked both as a teacher and a lecturer.[1]

Baldry is one of seven authors who writes under the pen name of Erin Hunter.[2][3] Baldry has written for Warriors, in which wild cats strive for peace in their territories,[4] and Seekers, in which a group of four bears go on a journey together.

She currently lives in Reigate with her two cats, Bramble and Sorrel, who were the inspirations for two characters in the Warriors books (Brambleclaw and Sorreltail, respectively).[5] She was married to the late Peter Baldry, a scientist, and has two sons, Will and Adam.
