DAN BROWN:

Dan Brown is a classic rags to riches story.  He went to Hollywood to make it as a musician but ended up writing.

After publishing a couple of books that went nowhere, he wrote The Divinci Code and became one of the best known authors in the world.

The success of the mega-selling novelist continues, and with his eighth book, Origin, readers say he still has the magic touch.
