Siobhán Carew ...was born in Dublin, Ireland. In search of adventure, she emigrated to Australia where she worked for a while. It is a wonderful country but the very hot weather defeated her and she returned to Ireland, and wandered for a while until eventually settling in the UK. She now lives north of Cambridge, with a husband, and a bad-tempered cat. |

Siobhán worked for the Irish Dancing Commission in Dublin, and this was one of her favourite jobs as she was required to travel to exotic Irish locations (such as Tralee and Galway) for All-Ireland and World championships. The music and the dancing were wonderful to listen to and watch. Adding more variety to her CV, Siobhán took a job working for Radio Teilifís Eireann in Dublin, moving, after a while, to their London office. She has worked for the University of London and the University of Cambridge, but now focusses entirely on writing (unless her husband persuades her to help on the farm!). Writing crime novels was not what Siobhán thought she would ever do, but she enjoys teasing out the plot and characters. Siobhán doesn't limit herself to crime fiction, however. Meet me in Hopatcong is a mystery adventure set in New York and New Jersey. CATalogue (see below) was a fun project, and there is another cat-authored book in progress. Siobhán is a member of the Society of Authors, and secretary of the Cambridge Writers group. |
