Annapurna Johansson
Illustrator
Anna Johansson was born in Sweden, where she lived most of her life before relocating to the USA. She was drawn to art in her early teens as a form of expression or release for her inner struggles. Wherever she has lived, her first priority has always been to set up a small art studio, like an extension of her very being. Now, Anna’s primary interest is to create art with devotion. She has a special passion for book illustration. Her artwork is inspired by the mystical yoga tradition of ancient India, evident in the first children’s book she illustrated: The Peaceable Forest. She lives with her husband in Florida, USA. She is the loving grandmother of three beloved grandchildren.
Vrinda Sheth
Author
Vrinda Sheth grew up in Sweden and was raised on stories from the ancient Indian lore, such as the Mahabharata, Ramayana, and Bhagavat Purana. She became an avid reader in her early teens and has never stopped. She finds that the fantasy genre explores the truth with the most imaginative depth. Vrinda lived in South India for five years learning classical dance at Kalakshetra, one of the foremost institutes for Bharata Natyam. During that time, she wrote Prince Rama – Son of the Solar Dynasty. The book received an IP award and an honorable mention in the New York Book Show. It was the seedling of The Sita’s Fire Trilogy. Vrinda is fluent in Swedish, familiar with Hindi and Sanskrit, and has a degree in English from University of Florida. She lives in Florida with her husband, two children, and extended family.
