Madeleine E. Robins

Madeleine Robins has been, variously, an administrator, copywriter, actor, stage-combatant, comic-book editor, nanny, teacher, cake decorator, and repaired hurt books. An unregenerate city-dweller, she was born and raised in New York City, but has lived in London, Boston, and San Francisco. Her written work includes romance, fantasy, science fiction, a super-hero novel, historical fiction, alternate-history historical fiction, all of which permits her to indulge a passion for history, cities, and spare bits of otherwise useless information. Robins is married with two daughters; they live in Northern California, with one high-strung dog and one eccentric lemon tree.
