Born in London, England, Grant’s father was of dual US-British nationality and a professional tennis player who won his place in the semi- finals of the World Championship for each country and thus needed to play against himself. Spent her early years on Hayling Island in Hampshire.
Grant became aware as a child of her uncanny gift of “far memory”—the ability to recall in detail previous incarnations, both male and female, in other centuries and other lands. Her books, which have been highly praised for the richness of color and incident and for their beauty of language and thought, are in fact the author’s memories of her earlier lives.
Her first book, Winged Pharaoh (1937), sourced from Grant’s “Far Memory” extrasensory abilities, catapulted Joan Grant to fame upon publication. Her books have been translated and published in many languages.
Grant died in 1989 at the age of 81.view less
