Tiffany Schmidt worked as a teacher before turning to full-time writing. Her fiction tends toward the lighter end of YA and middle grade, with contemporary settings, strong friendships, and characters who love reading. She lives in Doylestown, Pennsylvania.

The Bookish Boyfriends series made her name with younger readers. Each book in the four-book run takes a classic novel — Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, Sherlock Holmes — and sets its themes in a modern school environment, giving reluctant readers a way into the source material through a contemporary romance lens.

Outside the Bookish Boyfriends books, Schmidt has written the darker Once Upon a Crime Family duology, a standalone holiday novella, and contributed to the Monster High franchise. Her range sits between cozy contemporary fare and light thriller, depending on the series.
