Nato come Piers Anthony Dillingham Jacob l'6 agosto 1934, a Oxford, in Inghilterra, ha trascorso la sua infanzia in Inghilterra prima di trasferirsi in Spagna e immigrare negli Stati Uniti all'età di sei anni. Dopo aver completato gli studi, ha svolto una varietà di professioni per quindici anni prima di dedicarsi a tempo pieno alla scrittura di fiction.

Anthony è forse più noto per la sua fortunata serie Xanth, ambientata in un regno immaginario. Le sue opere hanno ottenuto un riconoscimento diffuso e diversi dei suoi romanzi hanno fatto la lista dei bestseller del New York Times. Oltre a questo, ha raggiunto una distinzione unica scrivendo libri con titoli che coprono l'intero alfabeto inglese, da Anthology a Zombie Lover.

Piers Anthony è un autore prolifico che ha scritto numerose serie, tra cui Xanth, Cluster, Apprentice Adept ed Incarnations of Immortality. Prima di diventare uno scrittore a tempo pieno, ha prestato servizio nell'esercito degli Stati Uniti, ha curato il giornale del battaglione ed è stato insegnante in una scuola pubblica. Ha stipulato un accordo con sua moglie per vendere un suo scritto entro un anno, e quando ci è riuscito, ha continuato a scrivere e a vendere le sue storie.

Anthony è un ambientalista e vive attualmente in una fattoria di alberi in Florida con sua moglie. Hanno due figlie adulte. È un bestseller del New York Times ventuno volte over e riceve centinaia di lettere quotidiane dai suoi fan appassionati. Le sue opere sono state ampiamente lette e amate da milioni di lettori in tutto il mondo, rendendolo uno degli autori di fantasy più popolari al mondo.
