Biography
Daniel Handler is an American writer, musician, and television producer born February 28, 1970. He is best known for his children's book series *A Series of Unfortunate Events* and *All the Wrong Questions*, both published under the pen name Lemony Snicket. The former was adapted into a 2004 film and a Netflix series that ran from 2017 to 2019. Handler has published adult novels and a stage play under his real name, along with other children's books under the Snicket pseudonym. His debut, *The Basic Eight*, was a satirical fiction piece rejected by many publishers for its dark subject matter. Beyond writing, Handler has played accordion in several bands and appeared on indie pop band The Magnetic Fields' album *69 Love Songs*. As a screenwriter, Handler works across television and film adaptation. Born under Pisces, with a life-path number of 11, Handler embodies the introspective, visionary qualities often associated with that numerological profile—channeling melancholy and dark whimsy into narratives for both children and adults.
