About Anna Todd
Anna Todd is an American author best known for her "After" series, a fanfiction inspired by the boy band One Direction. Born on March 20, 1989, in Dayton, Ohio, Todd began writing the first book, "After," in 2013 and published it on Wattpad, a social reading and writing platform. The "After" series garnered immense popularity on Wattpad, accumulating billions of reads and translations into over 30 languages. In 2014, it was published as a traditional novel by Gallery Books, a division of Simon & Schuster, and has since spawned four sequels: "After We Collided," "After We Fell," "After Ever Happy," and "Before." Todd's critical success is primarily attributed to the widespread appeal of the "After" series among young adult readers. While some critics praised its realistic and relatable characters, others criticized its portrayal of toxic relationships. Nonetheless, the series has been commercially successful, with over 15 million copies sold worldwide. In addition to her work on the "After" series, Todd has also published other novels, including "The Brightest Stars" and "The Fall of Paradise." She has received recognition for her work, including being named one of the "10 Authors to Watch in 2015" by The Huffington Post.
