Carol Emshwiller
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carol Emshwiller (b. 1921 in Ann Arbor, Michigan) is a writer of avant garde short stories and science fiction who has won prizes ranging from the Nebula Award award to the Philip K. Dick Award. Ursula Le Guin has called her "a major fabulist, a marvelous magical realist, one of the strongest, most complex, most consistently feminist voices in fiction." Among her novels are Carmen Dog and The Mount. She has also written two cowboy novels called Ledoyt and Leaping Man Hill.
She is the widow of the artist and experimental filmmaker Ed Emshwiller.
In 2005, she was awarded the World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement. Her short story, "I Live With You," won the 2006 Nebula Award for best short story. Then in 2006 she was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Bibliological Society of America. This is an extremely coveted award by authors of her genre, and it is rarely awarded but to extremely worthy individuals.
