Anna Todd

Anna Renee Todd (born March 20, 1989) is an American author, film producer, and screenwriter.

Todd's writing was initially inspired by the music and fandom of One Direction, and the singer Harry Styles is a model for the protagonist in her After series, Hardin Scott.

[4][1] Reviewers at the website Jezebel criticized the series and stated that it "echoes the troubling dynamics of 50 Shades," as they felt that Hardin's character "behaves at best like a prick, at worst like an abusive boyfriend in the making.

In October 2014, Paramount Pictures acquired film rights[7] to the After series with Offspring Entertainment set to produce.

The couple then moved to Fort Hood, Texas, where she worked at Waffle House and ULTA Beauty.
