Luke Paton

Luke Paton lives in Worcestershire, U.K., with his wife and two kids. He loves stories.

Growing up, he fell in love with reading books, watching movies and devouring magazines, and one day it hit him: someone actually gets to write all of these things. They even get paid for it! That’s when he realised he wanted to be a writer.

His first job was writing about movies, TV and entertainment for a kids’ magazine, and over the years, he's written for every audience — from preschoolers to adults — about everything from the CBeebies show In the Night Garden to the best restaurants in San Francisco.

He currently writes biographies of some of the world’s greatest sportspeople, aimed at inspiring the next generations of stars.
