Best known for her romance novels, as of 2005, Steel has sold more than 530 million copies of her books. One or more of her novels have been on the New York Times bestseller list for over 390 consecutive weeks and twenty-one of them have been adapted for television.
Steel started writing stories as a child, and by her late teens had begun writing poetry. A graduate of the Lycee Francais de New York, class of 1965, she went on to study at New York University and in Europe. At age nineteen she completed her first novel and was first published after years of frustration in 1973.
In addition to her novels for adults, Steel has written the "Max and Martha" series of books for young readers. She has also written the "Freddie" books, four of them, about real-life situations in children's lives, like a visit to the doctor and the first night away from home. Steel has published a book of poetry and has also written two nonfiction books, His Bright Light, the latter about the life and death of her son Nicholas Traina.
As a result of her own dysfunctional family, Steel maintains a strong interest in the well-being of children, and has raised nine of her own. She has been married five times, and is currently single. Her husbands to date are Claude-Eric Lazard, Danny Zugelder, William Toth, John Traina, and Tom Perkins.
For her lifetime contribution to world culture, in 2002 the French government decorated Danielle Steel as a "Chevalier" of the distinguished Order of Arts and Letters.
Danielle Steel has a home in Pacific Heights, San Francisco, California and in 2003 opened an art gallery in the city to exhibit the paintings and sculptures of emerging artists. She also maintains a residence in France where she spends several months of each year. She is of German Jewish and Portuguese heritage.
Danielle Steel is an undeniable legend. She is the bestselling author alive and the fourth-bestselling fiction author of all time, with over 800 million copies sold. Over the course of 45 years, she's written close to 200 books and is a frequent feature of many a bestseller list.
Typically, being a writer is not a road to an insane fortune. There are exceptions to this rule, of course. Harry Potter author J.K Rowling is an example. Of course, most authors don't have their books made into theme parks. Two American authors have ruled the best-seller lists for decades and in the process made enormous fortunes. Nora Roberts and Danielle Steel write mostly romance novels. Apparently romance novels are huge business, seeing that both authors have personal fortunes approaching $400 million. Let's take a look at how these two women built their romance novel empires.
Roberts wrote 23 novels for Silhouette between 1982 and 1984. In 1983, she and her husband Ronald divorced. She met her second husband, carpenter and bookstore owner Bruce Wilder when she hired him to build her some bookshelves in 1985. She moved to the publisher Putnam in 1987. She made her first appearance on the New York Times bestseller list in 1991. She made the hardcover bestseller list in 1996 with her fourth hardcover release (most romance novelists do not get hardcover releases) Montana Sky.
