JK Rowling one of the richest women in the world

by Wendy on January 18th, 2007

This comes as no surprise:

The one-time single mom on welfare is the brains behind Harry Potter, one of the most successful book franchises in history. The sixth installment, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, was the fastest-selling book in history, according to Guinness World Records. The film series–from which Rowling enjoys a cut of royalties and merchandising–has also proven astoundingly successful, with the total gross for the four films already released topping $3.5 billion. Rowling is the only career author on Forbes’ Billionaires list.
