Early life and educationCecily von Ziegesar was born in New York City into a family descended from the German nobility. Her childhood dream was to grow up to be a ballerina; she began lessons at age three and auditioned for the School of American Ballet at age eight, but was rejected.[3] As a teenager, she commuted to Manhattan at 6:00 a.m. every day to attend The Nightingale-Bamford School.[4] After graduating from Nightingale, Ziegesar attended Colby College. Then she spent a year in Budapest working for a local radio station. She then returned to the United States to study creative writing at the University of Arizona, only to drop out shortly thereafter.[4] CareerGossip GirlBook seriesIn New York City, while working at book-packaging firm Alloy Entertainment, she became inspired to create the Gossip Girl series, which presents a view of high-end teenage lifestyles. The series climbed to the top of The New York Times Best-Sellers list in 2002. A spin-off book series, The It Girl, made the list in 2005. The Constance Billard{{Sic}} School for Girls is based on an exaggerated version of Ziegesar's own alma mater, Nightingale. In October 2011, Ziegesar released a spin-off of her first novel: Psycho Killer. Television seriesGossip Girl was adapted for television in 2007. The show premiered to mixed reviews and lost more than a million viewers from episode one to two, from 3.65 million[5] to 2.55 million.[6] The rest of the season's viewers went up and down, the highest being 3 million viewers for the season finale and the lowest being 1.80 million viewers for episode eleven. Controversy and criticism surrounding the show surfaced due to the fact that it failed to show much of the books' plots, character personalities, and other major and minor facts, thus disappointing many fans of the novels. However, Ziegesar told ABC News that her major plot lines were there and that "at least it takes place in New York City".[7] In early 2011, The CW renewed the series for a fifth season. On May 16, 2011, Ziegesar herself made a cameo appearance in the fourth season finale.[8] Graphic novel seriesIn December 2009, Yen Press announced that it was working with South Korean artist Baek Hye-Kyung to create a graphic novel adaptation of the series titled Gossip Girl: For Your Eyes Only. Rather than adapting the original novels, however, the graphic novels will feature original stories with the same characters. It will be serialized in the company's anthology magazine Yen Plus, with the first chapter appearing in the January 2010 issue.[9] Personal lifeVon Ziegesar resides in the Columbia Street Waterfront District, a neighborhood in Brooklyn with her husband Richard, who is Chief Operating Officer of the Judd Foundation,[10] their children Agnes Belle von Ziegesar Griggs and Oscar von Ziegesar Griggs,[11] and their Cornish Rex cat.{{cn|date=March 2018}} Her children attend Millennium Brooklyn High School and Bay Ridge Prep.
