Jan Casey

Jan Casey first heard the little-known account of Waterloo Bridge, The Ladies' Bridge, being built by women during the Second World War on a Thames riverboat tour. The story fascinated her and The Women of Waterloo Bridge, Jan's first novel, is the outcome of her exploration into an episode that had virtually been airbrushed from history.  Jan achieved an M.A. in Creative Writing from Norwich University and her first five novels are available from Aria.

Jan  was born in London but spent her childhood in Southern California. She has worked as a teacher of English and Drama and a Learning Supervisor in the field of further education, but now writes full-time.
