Person
Robin Jarvis was born in Liverpool and grew up in Warrington. After a degree course in graphic design, he worked in television making model monsters and puppets. In due course they took on characters of their own and inspired him to start writing about them. His best-selling Deptford Mice trilogy has made him one of today's most popular storytellers. In 1995 he published the first of his dark and compelling Wyrd Museum books with Collins, with which he enthralled a whole new audience of older readers.
