Deborah Wright graduated from Oxford University in 1997 with a degree in English and did voluntary charity work before becoming a full-time writer. Her first novel, Olivia's Bliss, was published in 2000 and won the Poolbeg 'Write A Bestseller' competition. When she's not writing, Deborah enjoys painting, watching movies and travelling. Her favourite trip was a visit to India in 2006, which partly inspired The Celebrity Mother.
