Amelia Gray (born August 17, 1982) is an American writer. She is the author of the short story collections AM/PM ( Featherproof Books), Museum of the Weird ( Fiction Collective Two), and Gutshot ( Farrar, Straus and Giroux), and the novels THREATS ( Farrar, Straus and Giroux), and Isadora ( Farrar, Straus and Giroux). Gray has been shortlisted for the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction [1] and her television writing has been nominated for a WGA Award.

The New York Times called Gray's stories "leaps of faith, brave excursions into the realms of the unreal." [2] while the Los Angeles Times defined her style as "akin to the alternately seething and absurd moods of David Lynch and Cronenberg." [3] Of THREATS, NPR said "Amelia Gray's psychological thriller takes us to the brink between reality and delusion." [4]

Gray is a member of Giving What We Can, a community of people who have pledged to give at least 10% of their income to effective charities. [5]
