Pat Lowery Collins is een bejubelde auteur wiens werken zowel romans als prentenboeken omvatten. Ze vond inspiratie voor HIDDEN VOICES toen ze ontdekte dat Antonio Vivaldi talloze concerten componeerde om de talenten van weesmeisjes te etaleren, met de bijkomende bedoeling om een echtgenoot te vinden voor een gelukkig paar. Haar schrijfstijl duikt vaak in rijke historische verhalen en brengt minder bekende verhalen tot leven met levendige proza. Collins woont in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
