Anita Burgh was born in Kent. She began to write in her late forties and was first published at the age of fifty. She has subsequently had twenty-three novels published, numerous articles and short stories. Her themes are those of class, rejection and wealth. She writes books set in the modern world but also historical novels set in Victorian and Edwardian times—her latest being The Cresswell Inheritance trilogy. She has been a member of the RNA for many years, was a committee member and has been short-listed for the RNA Romantic Novel of the Year award. Now in her seventies, she enjoys teaching and mentoring others who are, as yet, unpublished. She continues to write novels, proving that authors never retire.
