She wrote the first book in 1997, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, followed by Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (1998), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (1999), Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2000), Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2003), Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2005), and it seemed, her last in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (2007). The seven books were adapted into popular movies, with Rowling as principal screenwriter. Apparently she got the idea for the young wizard in 1990 while waiting on a stalled train between Manchester and London- how's that for turning a travel delay into something productive? ![]() June, 2017, marked the 20th anniversary of the first book published, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" which sold over 120 million.
