About the author

Kerri Turner is an Australian author of two historical fiction novels, The Last Days of the Romanov Dancers and The Daughter of Victory Lights. Having trained for a career as a ballet dancer, she eventually realised her love for dance stemmed from the history surrounding it, and the complex stories told in the classical ballets. 

She turned this passion into words, writing historical novels and anthology contributions that connect to the performing arts across different countries and many different eras.
​
Her short stories have appeared with the Dangerous Women Project, Catchfire Press, Underground Writers, Stringybark, Reflex Fiction, and Leuven University Press, and she has appeared as a public speaker for the Heroine's Festival, Adult Learner's Week, and International Women's Day. 
​
​She lives in Sydney with her husband, and ​when not writing is kept busy by a rambunctious miniature schnauzer called Sully. 

She is represented by Alex Adsett of Alex Adsett Literary.
