Biography
Anne Hampson dreamed to teach and to write when was six, but due to the depression after World War II, she had to let study at 14. She had to begin to make blouses Marks & Spencer's blouses. She left work when marrying.
Later, when her marriage broke up, she had to return to work and to live in a tiny caravan. But, when Manchester University decided to trial older women she applied and she graduated.
In 1973, she became a launch author for the new Harlequin Presents line of category romance novels. Harlequin Presents books were more sensual than the previous line, Harlequin Romance, under which she had been published. She was chosen to be a launch author because she, along with Violet Winspear and Anne Mather were the most popular and prolific of Harlequin's authors.[citation|last=Hemmungs Wirten|first=Eva|title=Global Infatuation: Explorations in Transnational Publishing and Texts.
