Biography

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 journeys together.

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