Victoria Lynn Hayden, known as Torey L. Hayden (born May 21, 1951 in Livingston, Montana, U.S.), is a child psychologist, special education teacher, university lecturer and writer of non-fiction books based on her real-life experiences with teaching and counselling children with special needs. [http://www.torey-hayden.com/the_books.htm]

Subjects covered in her books include autism, Tourette syndrome, sexual abuse, fetal alcohol syndrome, and elective mutism (now called selective mutism), her specialty.

Hayden attended high school in Billings, MT and graduated in 1969. She then attended Whitman College in Walla Walla, WA.

A little time after having written her most famous book "One Child", Hayden moved to Wales in 1980 and got married to a Scot called Ken two years later. In 1985, she gave birth to her daughter Sheena. Hayden is now divorced. [http://www.torey-hayden.com/biography.htm]
