Rosamunde Pilcher Born 22 September 1924 in Lelant, Cornwall, Rosamunde Pilcher first published in 1949 as an author of Mills and Boon romances under the pseudonym Jane Fraser. Using her own name, Rosamunde published her first novel, 'A Secret to Tell' in 1955 and has written many novels since. In 1987, at the age of 63, she wrote the international best-seller 'The Shell Seekers' which sold 5.5 million copies making her one of the most successful contemporary female authors. Having gained enormous popularity in Germany, where the TV station ZDF has produced nearly 40 of her stories for TV, Rosamunde (along with director Claus Beling) was awarded the British Tourism Award in 2002. The filming of 'Coming Home' at Prideaux Place has proved to be a great draw for Pilcher fans worldwide, as have the other productions made for German television such as 'Flowers in the Rain', 'The End of Summer, The Long Weekend' and 'The Red Dress'. |
