De Beauvoir, Jeannette: - Although Jeannette de Beauvoir grew up in Angers, France, her American mother kept the home well-stocked with Golden Age English-language mystery novels, and everything she's written can probably be traced back to reading them at a very young age. She writes historical and mystery fiction (often combining the two), as well as plays and poetry; her work has appeared in 15 countries and has been translated into 12 languages.
