Anne Bradshaw was born in Caernarvon, Wales, in 1942, to London's Fred and Eve Tozer. She grew up in Cheshire, England where the family moved after the war. In 1963, in days when it was unusal to travel far, she left her homeland, spending eighteen months in the United States. "I wanted to see the world," she admits, "but only got as far as North America. That turned out to be far enough.

After working her way across America with a friend from London, she found secretarial employment with Western and Southern on Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles. There, because of the example of a fine young Latter-day Saint named Carolyn Croxton, she found The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and was baptized prior to returning to the U.K. Shortly thereafter, she met Bob Bradshaw, recently home from a labor mission in Airdrie, Scotland. They married in the Manchester South Ward and the London Temple in September 1966.

While serving as a Seminary teacher, Anne began sending articles and stories about British youth to the Church magazine, The New Era. She has also contributed Ensign British Isles articles about members from the United Kingdom. "Writing is an exciting and satisfying experience," Anne says, "and is something I've wanted to do since childhood. I've kept a box of ideas and jottings for a long time, knowing that one day they would get into books."
