James Patterson, an American author, has crafted numerous well-known series such as Alex Cross, Michael Bennett, Women's Murder Club, Maximum Ride, Daniel X, NYPD Red, Witch & Wizard, Private, and Middle School. His writings have reached an impressive milestone with over 425 million copies sold worldwide. Particularly noteworthy is that Patterson was the first person to sell 1 million e-books, a testament to his adaptability and reach in the digital age. In 2016, his success translated to financial achievement, as he topped Forbes's list of highest-paid authors with an income of $95 million.

Patterson's contributions to literature have not gone unrecognized. In November 2015, he received the esteemed Literarian Award from the National Book Foundation. Beyond his personal success, Patterson is known for his philanthropy, having donated millions of dollars in grants and scholarships towards promoting literacy. This commitment to the literary world extends beyond his own writing, demonstrating a broader dedication to the field as a whole.

Since retiring from advertising in 1996, Patterson has devoted his time to writing, producing more than 200 novels since 1976. His novels featuring the character Alex Cross stand as the top-selling U.S. detective series of the 2010s. This prolific output has resulted in more than 114 New York Times bestselling novels. Patterson holds the Guinness World Record for the most #1 New York Times bestsellers by a single author, with a staggering 67 to his name.
