Sobre el Autor
J.K. Rowling is a British author best known for her globally popular Harry Potter series. Born on July 31, 1965, in Yate, Gloucestershire, she developed a love for storytelling at a young age. After a challenging period of personal struggles, including the loss of her mother and living on welfare as a single mother, she found the inspiration to write about a young wizard named Harry Potter. The first book in the series, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone," was published in 1997 and quickly became a phenomenon, resulting in seven main books that have been translated into numerous languages and adapted into films.
Rowling's work has not only captivated millions of readers but also has had a significant impact on literature and popular culture. Her characters, themes of friendship, courage, and the battle between good and evil resonate deeply with audiences of all ages. Beyond the Harry Potter series, she has written under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith, exploring the crime fiction genre. Rowling's influence extends far beyond the pages of her books; she has become a prominent philanthropist, actively supporting various charitable causes, including her own charity, Volant Charitable Trust.
