From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Anya Seton (January 23, 1906 (although the year is often misstated to be 1904 or 1916) - November 8, 1990) was an American author of historical romances. She was born in New York, New York, and died in Old Greenwich, Connecticut. Her historical novels were noted for how well she researched the historical facts, and some of them were best-sellers.
