Erin Hunter

Erin Hunter is a collective pseudonym used by the authors Victoria Holmes, Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, Clarissa Hutton, Inbali Iserles, Tui T. Sutherland, and Rosie Best in the writing of several children's fantasy novel series which focus on animals and their adventures.

Notable works include the Warriors, Seekers, Survivors, Bravelands, and Bamboo Kingdom book series.

[3] James L. Barry, Bettina M. Kurkoski, and Don Hudson are included under the pseudonym as the illustrators of the Warriors mangas.

Natalie Riess and Sara Goetter are also included as the illustrators of the graphic novel adaptation of The Prophecies Begin.

When the third Warriors book, Forest of Secrets, was being drafted, Cherith Baldry joined the Erin Hunter team.

One of the authors suggested "Hunter", and the others felt that it was "perfect", because not only did it place the book series close to Jacques, but it evokes the image of a cat.

[5] After inviting Kate Cary to do the actual writing of the series, she moved behind the scenes to help edit and supervise details.

Inbali Iserles was born in Israel and is the author of the third, fifth and sixth books of the Survivors series: Darkness Falls, The Endless Lake and Storm of Dogs.

She also publishes animal fantasy novels under her own name, including The Tygrine Cat and the Foxcraft trilogy.

Gillian Philip was born on 2 July 1964, and is the author of several books in the Survivors and Bravelands series.

[17] Philip has toured the United States twice as the face of the Erin Hunter responsible for Survivors.

In June 2020, Philip was removed from the Erin Hunter team after announcing her support for statements by J.K Rowling on Twitter regarding transgender people, which were perceived as being transphobic.

James L. Barry illustrated most of the Warriors mangas, including the trilogy sets, modern standalones, and epilogue chapters in Super Editions.
