Marjorie M. Liu is an Asian-American ''New York Times'' best-selling author and comic novelist. Her paranormal romance and urban fantasy novels include most notable ''The Hunter Kiss'' and ''Tiger Eye'' series. Her work for Marvel Comics include ''NYX'', ''X-23'', ''Dark Wolverine'', and ''Astonishing X-Men''. ==Early life== Marjorie M. Liu was born in Philadelphia, and grew up in Seattle, Washington.〔Liu, Marjorie M. ("About the Author" ), marjoriemliu.com, accessed December 29, 2010.〕 Her father hails from Taiwan, while her mother is an American of French, Scottish and Irish descent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Marjorie's fantasies )〕 She developed an early love of reading, from books such as Laura Ingalls Wilder's ''Little House on the Prairie'' books, and the works of Robert Louis Stevenson, Joseph Campbell, Charles de Lint and Jorge Luis Borges.〔White, Claire E. ("A Conversation With Marjorie M. Liu" ), The Internet Writing Journal, accessed December 29, 2010.〕 Liu majored in East Asian Languages and Cultures and minored in Biomedical Ethics at the Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin.〔〔 During her undergraduate years there, she also practiced her web design skills by designing a fan site called The Wolverine and Jubilee page, based on her discovery of numerous X-Men fan sites that she found to be well-designed. Although she had never read comic books in her youth, she was familiar with the X-Men through the animated TV series and fan fiction, and to familiarize herself with them more closely, she purchased ''X-Men'' and ''Wolverine'' comics for reference from Powerhouse Comics in Appleton, Wisconsin. In the process, she became a fan of the franchise herself, and wrote her own X-Men fan fiction, finding it an experimental exercise that improved her storytelling skills.〔〔(The Wolverine and Jubilee Page ), accessed December 29, 2010.〕〔Press, David. ("INTERVIEW: Marjorie Liu talks ‘Dark Wolverine’ and ‘Darkness Calls’." ), Daily Planet, June 23, 2009〕 After graduating, she attended law school at the University of Wisconsin, as she was impressed with their East Asian legal center, and the presence of top U.S. experts in Biotech Law on the University's faculty. She found an internship in Beijing working at the Foreign Agriculture Service at the U.S. Embassy, which at the time, was dealing with the Chinese government's new rules regarding the import of genetically modified food. She graduated in May 2003, and was soon admitted to the bar.〔〔
