Lauren Zurcher was born in Boston, Massachusetts and moved to Denver, Colorado when she was a kindergartner. She attended a bilingual elementary school where classes were taught in both English and French. Lauren began her journey as a lifelong writer at the age of six when she wrote about family vacations across the world in her journal. The geography, peoples, fauna, and cultures she experiences are the source of her inspiration. Lauren wishes to share these treasured moments with others through her creativity.
