Welcome to our season three finale episode with award-winning, New York Times bestselling author, Tosca Lee. Tosca is the bestselling author ofThe Line Between, The Progeny, Firstborn, Iscariot, The Legend of Sheba, Demon: A Memoir, Havah: The Story of Eve, and The Books of Mortals Series with fellow New York Times bestselling author, Ted Dekker. Achieving the title of bestselling author is only one of a long list of accolades she has earned in her career.
American author best known for her historical fiction novels and thrillers, Tosca was born in Virginia. Named after a favorite Puccini opera of her father’s, it seems logical that she once dreamed of a career in the opera. She would not that path.
Tosca’s attention moved from opera to ballet. She became a classically trained ballerina and pianist. Unfortunately, injuries forced her to abandon ballet, and the demanding regime of a professional pianist was not appealing. Once again, she had to find a different path.
Tosca attended Smith College, earning a BA in English Language and Literature. Later, she attended Oxford University, where she studied international economics. Tosca wrote her first novel while at Smith, but that manuscript remains unpublished.
While her first manuscript was not a publishing success, she did begin writing professionally in 1992. While working for Smart Computing Magazine, Tosca achieved her first author status as co-author of two computer books.
Since her beginnings, Tosca has moved on to not only create an enviable solo author career, but has partnered with other New York Times bestselling authors, Ted Dekker and Marcus Brotherton. We strive to cover all of this in today's episode. Don't wait, go listen now.
