She has been writing since 1983, and has also been published under the pen names Ariel Berk and Thea Frederick. Biography Personal life In high school, Keiler was published in the school's creative writing magazine and edited the school newspaper. After winning a contest in college for writing a play, Keiler decided to become a playwright. She graduated from Smith College in 1974 and earned an A.M. in creative writing from Brown University in 1976. She then spent the next ten years writing plays for production in regional theaters around the country. Keiler married after her husband obtained his Ph.D. at Brown University. They now have two sons and live in suburban Boston, Massachusetts. Writing career After taking a year off teaching to try to write a novel, she sold a romance novel, Silent Beginnings, to Silhouette Books, in October 1983. Since then, Keiler has written over 100 novels. These have been published in category romance lines such as Silhouette (writing as Ariel Berk), Second Chance at Love (writing as Thea Frederick), and the Harlequin lines of Temptation, American, and Superromance, as well as single-title books published by Mira (writing as Judith Arnold), mysteries, and general fiction. She is a three-time Romantic Times award-winner and has been nominated an additional four times, including for Career Achievement. Keiler has been a finalist for the Romance Writers of America RITA Award and the Golden Medallion Award, and was nominated for the RWA's Lifetime Achievement Award. She is also a past president of Novelists, Inc.

Harlequin Enterprises Limited, 12cv5558, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan), against HQ Enterprises , alleging improper payment of e-book royalties. The case was dismissed in April 2013 by Harold Baer Jr. but was accepted on appeal in 2014. The parties agreed to settle in March 2016 and a $4.1M settlement was approved by William H. Pauley III in July 2016.
