About Hiro Fujiwara

Hiro Fujiwara (藤原 ヒロ, Fujiwara Hiro; born December 23, 1981, in Hyōgo Prefecture) is a Japanese manga artist. The manga artist was once active under her previous pen name, Izumi Hiro (和泉 ヒロ) at the end of the 1990s, but has abandoned the name after she won the Best Rookie award in the LMS for Kaeri Michi, Yuki no Netsu. Her first series, Kaichō wa Maid-sama! (会長はメイド様!, translation Maid Sama!) was serialized in Hakusensha's monthly shōjo manga magazine, LaLa. This series is licensed for North America, and an anime adaptation was broadcast during Spring 2010.
