Diana Gabaldon is a prolific author known for her multi-genre Outlander series, which has sold millions of copies worldwide and was adapted into a hit television show. After the publication of her internationally acclaimed debut novel, Outlander, in 1991, Diana Gabaldon established herself as a multi-genre author with millions of copies sold worldwide. The success of Outlander, a blend of historical fiction, romance, mystery, adventure, and science fiction/fantasy, led to a three-book deal and prompted Gabaldon to leave her academic career for full-time authorship. Outlander earned the Romance Writers of America’s RITA Award for Best Romance of 1991.
Her most recent main series installment, Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone, was published in 2021. Gabaldon is currently at work on the highly anticipated tenth and final book in the main series, tentatively titled A Blessing for a Warrior Going Out. Her literary contributions have been honored with prestigious accolades including the National Trust for Scotland’s ‘Great Scot’ award and the St. Andrew’s Society of Los Angeles & Southern California ‘Robert Burns Lifetime Achievement Award.’
