Dame Catherine Ann Cookson, DBE was a British author. She is in the top 20 of most widely read British novelists with sales topping 100 million, while retaining a relatively low profile in the world of celebrity writers. Her books were inspired by her deprived youth in South Tyneside, North East England, the setting for her novels. With 103 titles written in her own name or two other pen-names, she is one of the most prolific British novelists.
