- Rosemary Jeanne Harris was born in London, England, a daughter of Sir Arthur Travers Harris and his wife Barbara Daisy Kyrle Money. She attended school in Weymouth, and then studied at the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, the Chelsea School of Art, and the Courtauld Institute. During World War II, she served in the British Red Cross Nursing Auxiliary. Later she worked as a picture restorer and as a reader for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. From 1970 to 1973, she reviewed children's books for The Times. She also wrote numerous works of children's fiction of her own, and won the 1968 Carnegie Medal for The Moon in the Cloud. The Moon in the Cloud was the first volume of a trilogy set in ancient Egypt, followed by The Shadow on the Sun (1970) and The Bright and Morning Star (1972). The book was also the basis for a 1978 episode of the BBC television series for children, Jackanory.
