Daisy Goodwin is an English television producer and author. She started writing fiction with the publication of The American Heiress and followed that book up with The Fortune Hunter. Both of those books were New York Times Bestsellers and caused her to make the decision to concentrate on writing full time.

Goodwin studied history at Cambridge which gave her a base of knowledge for the Victorian era of London. She would then go on to attend Columbia Film School and after graduation she went to work for the BBC making arts documentaries. She would eventually go to the independent circuit and start her own production company. That company sold to Sony in 2012 and then she decided to try her hand at writing. That led to the first two novels and her getting commissioned to write her first screenplay, Victoria, an 8 part series about the early life of Queen Victoria for ITV and WGBH Masterpiece Theatre.
