Nancy Springer has published forty novels for adults, young adults
and children. In a career beginning shortly after she graduated
from Gettysburg College in 1970, Springer wrote for ten years in
the imaginary realms of mythological fantasy, then ventured on
contemporary fantasy, magical realism, and women's fiction before
turning her attention to children's literature. Her novels and
stories for middle-grade and young adults range from contemporary
realism, mystery/crime, and fantasy to her critically acclaimed
novels based on the Arthurian mythos, I AM MORDRED: A TALE OF
CAMELOT and I AM MORGAN LE FAY. Springer's children's books have
won her two Edgar Allan Poe awards, a Carolyn W. Field award,
various Children's Choice honors and numerous ALA Best Book
listings. Her most recent series include the Tales of Rowan Hood,
featuring Robin Hood s daughter, and the Enola Holmes mysteries,
starring the much younger sister of Sherlock Holmes. Ms. Springer
lives in East Berlin, Pennsylvania.
