Cherith Baldry is a writer of fantasy fiction.[6] She is one of the authors of the Warriors novel series, collaborating with Kate Cary, Victoria Holmes, and Tui Sutherland under the pen name of Erin Hunter.[1]

Biography[]

Cherith was born in Lancaster, England, on January 21, 1947.[7] She grew up on a farm, and it had cats who hunted mice, but were still friendly house pets.
After getting married, the first cat she obtained was a gray tom named Tomlyn. She and her husband got him while teaching at the University of Sierra Leone, and brought the cat with them when they returned to the UK.[1]
She was married to the late Peter Baldry, a scientist.[1] She had two sons named Will and Adam, who grew up in the company of a ginger and white cat named Schrodinger. Will and Adam are now grown up, and her husband has passed away,[1] so she currently lives alone in Reigate, England[8] with her two cats Bramble and Sorrel. Her two cats have inspired characters in the Warriors series (Brambleclaw and Sorreltail, respectively).[9]

Quotes[]

"...When I’m working, Bramble comes and sits on my lap. Sorrel comes and sits on the work. They have their own secret lives as Brambleclaw and Sorreltail, and I love writing Warriors so that I can imagine a cat’s eye view of the world. There’ll always be something mysterious about cats, and that’s one of the reasons why I love them."[10]
