Belle de Jour (writer)
Brooke Magnanti (born November 1975) is an American-born naturalised British research scientist, blogger, and writer, who, until her identity was revealed in November 2009, was known by the pen name Belle de Jour.〔 While completing her doctoral studies, between 2003 and 2004, Magnanti supplemented her income by working as a London call girl known by the working name Taro.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New Escort and PhD Babe )〕 Her diary, published as the anonymous blog ''Belle de Jour: Diary of a London Call Girl'', became increasingly popular as speculation surrounded the identity of Belle de Jour. Remaining anonymous, Magnanti went on to have her experiences published as ''The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl'' in 2005 and ''The Further Adventures of a London Call Girl'' in 2006. Her first two books were UK top 10 best-sellers in the nonfiction hardback and nonfiction paperback lists.
In 2007 Belle's blogs and books were adapted into a television programme, ''Secret Diary of a Call Girl'' starring Billie Piper as Belle, with the real name Hannah Baxter. In November 2009, fearing her real identity was about to come out, Magnanti revealed her real name and occupation as a child health scientist.
==Early life==
Born in the United States to an Italian American father and Jewish American mother,〔 Magnanti was born and grew up in Clearwater, Florida.〔 She graduated from the private Clearwater Central Catholic High School where she was named a National Merit Scholar in 1992.〔Eric Deggans: (''Subject of Showtime's 'Secret Diary of a Call Girl' grew up in Florida'' ). Tampa Bay Times, 2011-4-1〕
She entered university at the age of 16, going on to receive a B.S. in 1996 from Florida State University. Relocating to the United Kingdom, Magnanti studied for a master's degree in genetic epidemiology and Ph.D. in forensic science from the University of Sheffield in England.〔Zoë Corbyn: (''Prostitution did not finance Belle de Jour’s PhD'' ) at the website of ''Times Higher Education'', 2009-11-19〕〔http://belledejour-uk.blogspot.de/p/bio.html, retrieved 2014-8-10〕
