Elizabeth Bear

Elizabeth Bear ist eine hoch gelobte amerikanische Autorin, die vor allem für ihre Werke in dem Genre der spekulativen Fiktion bekannt ist. Sie wurde in Hartford, Connecticut geboren und wuchs im zentralen Connecticut auf. Ihre diversen Wurzeln umfassen Transsylvanien, die Ukraine, Schweden, Deutschland, Cherokee, Schottland, England und Irland. Als Kind hatte Bear eine Leidenschaft fürs Lesen und eine Neigung zum Schreiben, was sie dazu brachte, eigene Geschichten der spekulativen Fiktion zu verfassen.

Bears Karriere als Autorin erstreckt sich über mehr als zwei Jahrzehnte, in denen sie zahlreiche Romane in verschiedenen Untergenres der Fantasy verfasst hat und für ihr Werk Lob erhalten hat. Einige ihrer beliebtesten Serien sind die Jenny Casey-Trilogie, die Iskryne-Serie, die sie mit Sarah Monette schreibt, die Edda der Lasten und die Eternal Sky-Serie. Sie hat mehrere prestigeträchtige Auszeichnungen für ihr Schreiben erhalten, darunter den Besten Erstlingsroman bei den Locus Awards, den Sturgeon Award, den John W. Campbell Award für den besten neuen Autor und zwei Hugo Awards für ihre Kurzgeschichten.

Bevor Bear Vollzeitautorin wurde, arbeitete sie als Reporterin, Stallkraft und Technische Autorin. Sie begann über eine Karriere als Autorin nachzudenken und erlangte kommerziellen Erfolg mit der Veröffentlichung ihres ersten Romans "Hammered" im Jahr 2004. Seitdem hat sie einen großen Korpus an Werken produziert, darunter zahlreiche Kurzgeschichten und Romane. Bear lebt derzeit in Brookfield, Massachusetts.
