She began her writing career in the early 1980s, first achieving success with category romance novels. In 1991, Johansen transitioned to writing suspense historical romance novels, starting with the publication of The Wind Dancer. In 1996, Johansen switched genres again, turning to crime fiction, which has become her primary focus and in which she has found tremendous success. She is now the author of over 30 consecutive New York Times bestsellers. Johansen's most popular and acclaimed series features the character of Eve Duncan, a forensic sculptor who helps families find closure by reconstructing the faces of their missing loved ones. Johansen has a very disciplined writing process, typically working from 9am to 7pm daily and aiming to complete at least 10 pages per day. She credits her daughter Tamara, who serves as her research assistant, as being invaluable in helping her develop the intricate plots and characters that populate her novels. Johansen is known for allowing her characters to guide the direction of the story, rather than rigidly planning everything out in advance. A key aspect of Johansen's approach is creating complex, flawed characters that readers can connect with on an emotional level. She believes that "flaws are human and it gives a character something against which to struggle." At the same time, she strives to balance those flaws with enough vulnerability and edge to keep readers engaged. In addition to her solo work, Johansen has also co-authored several novels with her son, Roy Johansen, an Edgar Award-winning screenwriter and novelist. Overall, Iris Johansen is regarded as a master storyteller who has captivated millions of readers worldwide with her suspenseful, character-driven crime fiction.
