Rowling graduated from the University of Exeter in 1986 and in the early 1990s she went to Portugal to work as a teacher of English. After a brief marriage and the birth of her daughter she returned to the United Kingdom where she was an unemployed single parent in Edinburgh. While living on public assistance Rowling wrote "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" at a table in a café during her daughters naps.

Джоанна Кэтлин Роулинг родилась 31 июля 1965 года в городке Йейт, недалеко от Бристоля, Англия. Сочинять Роулинг начала в возрасте шести лет, когда написала рассказ под названием «Кролик». Роулинг окончила Эксетерский университет в 1986 году, а в начале 1990-х годов поехала в Португалию, чтобы работать преподавателем английского языка. После недолгого замужества и рождения дочери она вернулась в Соединенное Королевство, где стала жить в Эдинбурге, безработная мать-одиночка. Живя на пособие, Роулинг написала книгу «Гарри Поттер и философский камень» за столиком в кафе, пока ее дочка спала. Когда «Гарри Поттер и Философский камень» был куплен и опубликован издательством Блумсбери в 1997 году, ее жизнь резко изменилась. Серия книг о Гарри Поттере завоевала множество наград и пользуется огромным успехом во всем мире. Роулинг также написала три романа для взрослых.
