The author of numerous suspense novels and children’s books, Othello Bach sold her first best-selling novel, House of Secrets, at the age of 24. Several horror novels later she turned her talents toward children’s books. Her whimsical children’s material has been recorded by notables such as Joel Grey, Tammy Grimes, and Sandy Duncan.
Othello taught creative writing at the University of California at Irvine and Cypress College in Cypress, California. (And, yes, Othello is her real name.)
