Born in 1918, L'Engle grew up in New York City, Switzerland, South Carolina and Massachusetts. Her father was a reporter and her mother had studied to be a pianist, and their house was always full of musicians and theater people. L'Engle graduated cum laude from Smith College, then returned to New York to work in the theater. While touring with a play, she wrote her first book, \u003ci\u003eThe Small Rain\u003c\/i\u003e, originally published in 1945. She met her future husband, Hugh Franklin, when they both appeared in \u003ci\u003eThe Cherry Orchard\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUpon becoming Mrs. Franklin, L'Engle gave up the stage in favor of the typewriter. In the years her three children were growing up, she wrote four more novels. Hugh Franklin temporarily retired from the theater, and the family moved to western Connecticut and for ten years ran a general store. Her book \u003ci\u003eMeet the Austins\u003c\/i\u003e, an American Library Association Notable Children's Book of 1960, was based on this experience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHer science fantasy classic \u003ci\u003eA Wrinkle in Time\u003c\/i\u003e was awarded the 1963 Newbery Medal. Two companion novels, \u003ci\u003eA Wind in the Door\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA Swiftly Tilting Planet\u003c\/i\u003e (a Newbery Honor book), complete what has come to be known as The Time Trilogy, a series that continues to grow in popularity with a new generation of readers. Her 1980 book \u003ci\u003eA Ring of Endless Light\u003c\/i\u003e won the Newbery Honor.
