Anna Castle writes the Francis Bacon Mystery series and the Professor and Mrs. Moriarty series. She holds an eclectic set of degrees: BA in the Classics, MS in Computer Science, and a Ph.D in Linguistics. She has had a correspondingly eclectic series of careers: waitressing, software engineering, documenting an indigenous language of southern Mexico, a short stint as an associate professor, and managing a digital archive. Writing historical fiction combines her lifelong love of stories and learning. She physically resides in Austin, Texas, but mentally counts herself a queen of infinite space.
Anna Castle passed away suddenly on February 2, 2022. She will be greatly missed.
