MARY HIGGINS CLARK
In the world of suspense novels, Mary Higgins Clark is in a class all her own. With over 100 million books sold in the U.S.—all 31 titles New York Times bestsellers—she has richly earned the nickname “Queen of Suspense.” Her mystery books draw out the tension, keeping us guessing while moving the story swiftly along. Yet it’s not just masterful plotting that keeps us reading Mary Higgins Clark books. Women relate to her strong, courageous and resourceful heroines.
Born in the Bronx in 1927, Higgins Clark loved to write from an early age. In high school, she churned out stories with an eye for publication. Even after she became a wife and mother of four, she never lost her dream of writing bestselling mystery books. When her husband, Warren, died in 1964, she took a job writing four-minute radio scripts, which honed the crisp writing style required for good suspense novels. Higgins Clark’s life-long dream was realized when the first of her mystery novels, Where Are the Children? (1975), became a New York Times bestseller. That, and such Mary Higgins Clark books as A Stranger Is Watching, The Cradle Will Fall and Loves Music, Loves to Dance have been adapted for film or television. Now her daughter, Carol, is a popular author of bestselling mystery books, too, sometimes sharing the New York Times bestseller list with her famous mom. Along with her suspense novels, numerous awards and honors fill this Mystery Writers of America Grand Master’s home, which she shares with her husband, John, in Saddle River, New Jersey.
