Lilian Jackson Braun composed her first poem at the age of two. She began writing her Cat Who. . . detective series when one of her own Siamese cats mysteriously fell to its death from her apartment block. Since then over twenty Cat Who. . . novels have been published, all featuring the very talented Koko and Yum Yum, Siamese cats with a bent for detection. She and her husband, Earl, live in the mountains of North Carolina.
