Andrea Stewart

    Andrea Stewart, hija de inmigrantes chinoamericanos, se crió en diversos lugares de los Estados Unidos. Sus padres siempre enfatizaron la ciencia y la educación, por lo que pasó su infancia inmersa en Star Trek y libros de biblioteca de olores extraños. Cuando sus (admittedly ambiciosos) sueños de convertirse en una matadora de dragones no se materializaron, se dedicó a escribir libros. Ahora vive en la soleada California y, además de escribir, se la puede encontrar cuidando gatos, observando pájaros y cayendo en agujeros de conejo de investigación.
