50. the shy sorceress


not
even
a
decade
ago
she
was
unknown
and
poor,
a
single
mom
on
welfare
who
sometimes
pretended
to
browse2
in
maternity3 stores so she could cadge4 a free diaper5 in the
changing room6 . now, after four harry potter books, two
movies
and
an
armada
of7
related
merchandise
,
j.
k.
rowling
has a fortune estimated at 450 million, according to the
london
sunday
times8
rich
list,
making
her
50
million
wealthier than the queen of england. her personal life has
picked up too . she has bought multimillion-dollar houses
in
london,
edinburgh
and
the
scottish
hills
near
perth.
and
at the end of 2001 , rowling, 37 , married neil murray, a
steady, brainy anesthetist and in march 2003 they had a son
david.
rowling
has
admitted
that
—
no
surprise
—
harry
is
her favorite boy
’
s name, but she wisely avoided saddling
her son with that lifelong invitation to teasing.


in
fact,
rowling
has
tried
to
throw
a
cloak
of
invisibility
around
her
family
so
they
can
live
almost
normal
lives.
9
but
simple
pleasures
like
strolling
to
the
supermarket
in
edinburgh
or
attending
her
11
-year-old
daughter jessica
’
s christmas pageant10 require constant
vigilance11 against an army of tabloid reporters12.


the intrusions are only part of the reason rowling is
uneasy with fame.
“
i never set out to make a mark,
”
she
tells time.
“
i set out to do the thing i love best in the
world and find out whether i was any good at it.
”
she
’
s
so good at it that her lawyers are constantly swatting down
copycats trying to cash in on pottermania 13. .. . rowling
was
badly
shaken
when
an
american
writer
named
nancy
stouffer
claimed
she
had
stolen
the
word
muggle
and
otherwise
plagiarized
stouffer
’
s
work.
a
new
york
city
federal
judge
found that stouffer had
“
perpetrated a fraud
”
. it felt,
rowling says,
“
as if some strange woman had come out of
nowhere saying she was my children
’
s mother . . . it was
like
a
punch
in
the
stomach14
.
people
think
that
if
you
have
been successful, you are insulated from15 normal feelings
of hurt, but you aren
’
t.
”



rowling
appreciates
that
she
can
use
her
name
and
money
to
support
charities,
including
those
for
one-parent
families
and
victims
of
multiple
sclerosis.
..
.
“
one
of
the
few upsides of being famous is being able to do something
meaningful,
”
she
tells
time.
after
publication
of
order
of
the
phoenix,
rowling
will
retreat
from
the
spotlight
to
write
book
no.
6
and
care
for
her
family.
she
hopes
to
be
remembered
as
“
someone who did the best she could with the talent she
was
given
”
and
she
“
wouldn
’
t
mind
being
remembered
as
a
good
parent
”
