JK Rowling (1965)
Through her books, author Joanne Kathleen Rowling (JK Rowling) brought the world one of the most-loved and most famous characters ever. She wanted to be a writer at an early age and wrote her first book at the age of 6, The book was about a Rabbit and the book was named Rabbit!. Jk Rowling Fascinated the whole world with her creative imagination and great ideas.
Since their publication though, the books have been turned into an unbelievably successful series of films, which launched the careers for Hollywood. She has also published books under a different name, Robert Galbraith. Some publishers rejected books that 'Robert Galbraith' had written, with one even saying that 'he' should go on a writing course! We bet they were rather embarrassed when they found out who 'he' really was.
JK Rowling was born on July 31, 1965, in Yate, England. She adopted her pen and named it, J.K. A graduate of the University of Exeter, Rowling moved to Portugal in 1990 to teach English.
As the first female novelist to become a billionaire, it's safe to say she has left a huge mark in history!
