About our Author / Illustrator Archive
Our author & illustrator database is a unique, web-based resource for all to use, free of charge.

Our database catalogues worldwide authors and illustrators that we find through our ongoing research.

We currently have over 1300 authors and illustrators, from all over the world, entered into our database. We add new entries every day and have no intention of stopping!

We add anyone we can find who has written or illustrated a book - it doesn't matter if they have written one book or a thousand books, we still enter them. And neither do we care if the book was privately published, had a small print run or was unsuccessful.

Our intention is to offer visitors the opportunity to source detailed and visual information on any author and illustrator along with any of their books.

Where possible info on each author & illustrator includes:

Their nationality
Their full date of birth and death
Their town / city / area of birth
Schools / colleges / universities attended
Short biography
List of titles published

Each title by an author or illustrator, where possible, displays:

An image of the first edition cover
Information regarding identifying the first edition
A synopsis (content information)
