About the Author
Born, raised, and educated in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA, Laurel A. Rockefeller’s passion for history shines through in all her writing, both fiction and non-fiction. With twenty years of hands-on historical experience, including a tenure as a medieval reenactor in the Society for Creative Anachronism, Laurel supplements her university training in medieval and Asian history with a deeply personal connection to the past. She has lived the history she writes about – wearing the clothes, preparing the food, spinning the yarn, performing the music, and dancing the dances featured in her works.
Laurel’s books are available in digital, paperback, and hardcover formats, with options for translation into up to ten languages. Audio editions are published in English, French, Spanish, and German, often featuring period music performed by actor-musicians. Laurel herself lends her voice to three audiobooks: Catherine de Valois (Spanish), The Arban and the Saman, and Songs of the Beinarian Court.
Beyond her writing, Laurel is a dedicated educator committed to enhancing global history literacy, with a particular focus on highlighting women’s achievements. She is also a passionate advocate for animal welfare and environmental causes. In her leisure time, Laurel enjoys the company of her cockatiels, exploring historic sites, and indulging in classic motion pictures and television series.
