Biography

Will add: author of suspense fiction [1] -adding wikilinks to genres

My Changes: Iris Johansen left her job as an airline reservations agent in the early 1980s to begin writing romance novels.[2] She then decided to turn to historical romantic suspense in the early 1990s starting with her novel The Wind Dancer, before she found herself settling in the genre of crime fiction with her first thriller Ugly Duckling published in 1996.[3] She has written in multiple genres to which some have landed her on the New York Times bestseller’s list.[4]
