Meg Cabot (Who Wrote That?)Meg Cabot is the author of dozens of books for children, young adults, and adults. She is most famous for her series "The Princess Diaries", which chronicles the life of an average teenager who just also happens to be a princess. When Walt Disney turned "The Princess Diaries" into two movies, Cabot's fame skyrocketed. She has since gone on to write many more best-selling books, including the "1-800-WHERE-R-U" series and the "Mediator" series. Meg Cabot tells the story of the young author's path from small-town girl to nationally known author.
