About Tyne O'Connell
Tyne O'Connell (born Clementyne Rose O'Connell 7 October 1960) is a British author and historian of Irish descent who lives and works in Mayfair, London. Mayfair serves as a backdrop for much of her contemporary women's fiction, including Making The A list (Headline Review, 1999) and Sex with the Ex (Red Dress Ink UK, 2004). She has written for publications such as Ms., Elle UK and Journal. Her short stories appear in Girls' Night Out and Kid's Night In. She is a contributor to Holiday Goddess. O'Connell was The Eccentric Club's "Most Eccentric Thinker of the Year" 2015.
Bloomsbury USA published a compilation of O'Connell's YA fiction Royal Match and Royal Mess in 2012 to coincide with the Royal Wedding. Soon after O'Connell was diagnosed with a brain tumour. In 2016 she received the "Order of the Crown of Stuart" for historical research into the emergence of eccentricity as a quintessential aspect of the British and Irish character through the Stuart Monarchy's embrace of the Baroque and the scientific revolution 1603 - 1714.
CNN Style in its documentary The Adorned describes O'Connell as "The Mayfair-based author and socialite seems to have been torn straight from the pages of an Evelyn Waugh novel; with her cut-glass accent, perma-fixed tiara and layers of pearls." Despite this diagnosis, O’Connell has continued to embrace the extraordinary.
In 2017 the Academic Economic Congress awarded Tyne O'Connell the title of Knowledge Ambassador for her work as a historian and specifically for her work on the history of eccentricity. O'Connell also appeared on the 2019 BBC "A Brief History Of Eccentricity"
