Author of the Hunger Games Series

Children: 2 Kids

A former writer for children’s television, this talented and wildly successful writer mom worked on Clarissa Explains it All and Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! before trying her hand at children’s books. Her first series, The Underland Chronicles, sold well enough to pave the way for her next series, the multimillion-selling book and movie series, The Hunger Games. Now living in Connecticut with her husband and two children, Suzanne seems to favor a low, grounded profile. We’ll see if she can keep that going when her new book, Year of the Jungle, hits shelves sometime this year!
