Victoria M. Azaro was born and
raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina where she developed a passion for the
Fashion and the Fine Arts world.
Victoria holds a Masters of Fine
Arts and a Major in Fashion Design. She has studied and worked in many
places around the world; but it wasn’t until her first son was born
that she started writing and illustrating for children. She published her
first book “Saffron” in 2009, followed by “Saffron, I have everything
under control” in 2010; and “Saffron, so quite excellent” in 2012. Also,
Saffron featured as Upstart’s youngest columnist throughout 2012, bringing
Upstart readers monthly stories from around the world, both in print and
digital form. (Upstart NZ Children’s Magazine)
“Saffron” was awarded the
prestigious “White Ravens 2010” as well as being on the “Storylines
Notable Junior Fiction” list for 2010. The “Saffron” series is still
growing with the release of “Super Saffron” in April 2014 and “Sage, I am
the middle sister” in September 2014.
Victoria now lives in Auckland, with
her husband and their three children and she spends every free minute of
the day writing and illustrating.
