Rowling
Rowling House is named after J. K. Rowling.
J.K. Rowling (born 31 July 1965) is a literary phenomenon whose imagination has captivated millions worldwide. Best known for creating the Harry Potter series, she transformed a simple idea scribbled on a napkin into the best-selling book series in history, with over 500 million copies sold and multiple prestigious awards to its name.
Her enchanting world didn’t stop at the page—it evolved into a blockbuster film series, where she maintained creative oversight and even took on a producer role for the final instalments. The Harry Potter universe has since expanded beyond books and films, shaping modern pop culture with theme parks, merchandise, and a global fanbase that remains as devoted as ever.
Rowling's journey from struggling writer to international icon is as inspiring as her stories. Rising from living on state benefits, she became the world’s first billionaire author, only to give away much of her fortune to charitable causes. While this generosity may have redefined her financial status, she remains amongst the wealthiest and most influential figures in literature.
Her legacy is one of perseverance, creativity, and the power of storytelling—proof that a single idea can change the world.
Rowling House is lead by Mr B Wells.
