O Autorce
Rosemary Rogers, z domu Rosemary Jansz (ur. 1932 w Cejlonie), jest jednym z najlepiej sprzedającym się autorów historycznych romansów. Jej pierwsza książka, Słodka dzika miłość, została opublikowana w 1974 roku.
Rogers jest uważana za jednego z twórców nowoczesnego romansu historycznego. Obecnie mieszka w Connecticut.
Rosemary Jansz was born on 7 December 1932 in Panadura, Ceylon, now Sri Lanka. Her parents, Barbara "Allan" and Cyril Jansz, were Dutch-Portuguese settlers who owned several private schools. Rogers lived among many servants and was sheltered from much of the outside world. She began writing at age eight, and throughout her teens penned many romantic epics in the style of her favorite writers, Sir Walter Scott, Alexandre Dumas, père, and Rafael Sabatini.
After spending three years at the University of Ceylon, Rogers became a reporter, and soon married Summa Navaratnam, a Ceylonese rugby player and track star (who played for Ceylon against the 1950 British Lions and who was known as "the fastest man in Asia"). Following a separation from her husband, Rogers moved with their two daughters, Rosanne and Sharon, to London in 1960.
In Europe, she met Leroy Rogers from the United States. They married in his home town, St. Louis, Missouri and she moved her family to California, where they had two sons, Michael and Adam. The second marriage ended after eight years, and Rogers was left to support herself and four children on her salary as a typist for the Solano County Parks Department. The following year, in 1969, her parents came to live with Rogers. In Solano County, she met Shirlee Busbee, and Rosemary became her friend and mentor.
Her third marriage, in September 1984, was to poet Christopher Kadison, 20 years her junior. It was a short-lived union.
Rogers now makes her home in California, where she continues to write.
