Claire Legrand
she/her
Claire Legrand used to be a musician until she realized she couldn’t stop thinking about the stories in her head. Now she is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of thirteen novels, most notably the Middlemist Trilogy and the Empirium Trilogy, as well as THE CAVENDISH HOME FOR BOYS AND GIRLS, the Edgar Award-nominated SOME KIND OF HAPPINESS, and SAWKILL GIRLS, which was nominated for both a Bram Stoker Award and a Lambda Literary Award. She is also one of the four authors behind THE CABINET OF CURIOSITIES, a critically acclaimed anthology of short stories for young readers. When not writing, Claire enjoys tending to her many plants, learning about fashion and interior design, rooting for the Phillies, and quoting Star Trek to anyone who will listen.
