特蕾西·雪佛兰 （Tracy Chevalier） 美国畅销书作家，1962年生于在美国华盛顿特区，成年后移居英国。对于改写《奥赛罗》的初衷，雪佛兰坦承主要是基于个人的亲身经历：她儿时就读于黑人学生为主的小学，成年后长期生活在英国，却因为自己的美国口音而被当作“局外人”。 “我认为《奥赛罗》的主题是关于局外人的，也是关于某一群体如何对待与他们相异的个体的。而操场是一个隐喻，它就像一片封闭的领地，里面发生的所有事情都会被放大。” 截至目前，雪佛兰共计出版了九部长篇小说和两部短篇小说集。1997年，她凭借《纯蓝》（Virgin Blue）斩获史密斯年度新人奖，第二部小说《戴珍珠耳环的少女》（Girl with a Pearl Earring）畅销38国，全球销量超过500万册，并被改编为同名电影，由斯嘉丽·约翰逊和科林·费斯主演。
