Lemony Snicket is the pen name use by Daniel Handler in writing his books for children. Daniel Handler was born on Feb. 28, 1970 in San Francisco. His mother was an opera singer and his father a CPA. His father fled Germany as a youth and related stories to Daniel about the Holocaust. Daniel was acutely aware that children are not exempt from life's injustices.
When Mr. Handler was researching his book, "Basic Eight", he contacted a number of right-wing organizations in order to receive literature about their beliefs, and when asked to whom to send the books, he quickly made up the name Lemony Snicket.
Mr. Handler wrote three books under his real name: "Basic Eight", "Watch Your Mouth", and "Adverbs".
There are 13 books in the Lemony Snicket "Series of Unfortunate Events." They are:
The Bad Beginning · The Reptile Room · The Wide Window · The Miserable Mill · The Austere Academy · The Ersatz Elevator · The Vile Village · The Hostile Hospital · The Carnivorous Carnival · The Slippery Slope · The Grim Grotto · The Penultimate Peril · The End
Mr. Handler resides in San Francisco.
