Nebula Awards Showcase 2018

ABOUT THE EDITOR

Jane Yolen, often called “the Hans Christian Andersen of America,” is the author of over 366 books including ten books of poetry for adults, two cookbooks, and twelve music books. She has won an assortment of awards: two Nebulas, a World Fantasy Award, a Caldecott, three Mythopoeic awards, two Christopher Medals, a nomination for the National Book Award, the Jewish Book Award, the Kerlan Award, the Catholic Library’s Regina Medal, as well as six honorary doctorates—five of them from Massachusetts colleges and universities. Two years ago she was named one of the Massachusetts Unsung Heroines. And she was the first writer to win a New England Public Radio’s Arts & Humanities Award. She is a Grand Master of SFWA, SFPW, and the World Fantasy Association—the trifecta. One of her awards set her good coat on fire.
