(From the Wikipedia article) Erin Hunter is a pseudonym used by the authors Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, and Tui Sutherland, along with editor Victoria Holmes (who also wrote one of the books). They are best known for the Warriors series, but they have created a similar series called Seekers. The pseudonym was created because using various names on the books would mean that the books would be shelved in different places at libraries, making them harder to find. The name Hunter was chosen because it fit the theme of the feral cats in Warriors; plus they would be shelved close to books by Brian Jacques, an author that the writers like.
