Michael Grant

Most of the 150 books that Michael Grant has written have been with his wife, Katherine Appelgate, including, “Eve and Adam” (Macmillan/Feiwel & Friends). Grant and Applegate are also the co-authors of the hit Animorphs series, among other popular series. Grant grew up in a military family and attended 10 schools in five states as well as three schools in France. He says he became a writer because “it was one of the few jobs that wouldn't tie me down to a specific location.”
