Sharon Green (July 6, 1942 – February 17, 2022) was an American science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and romance author.
Green was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1942 to Morris Green and Esther (née Bender) Green. [1] She attended high school in Brooklyn and graduated with a B.A. degree from New York University in 1963. [1]
Green married in 1963 and had three sons. In 1976, Green divorced her husband and raised her three sons, Andy, Brian and Curtis, as a single mother in Highland Park, New Jersey. [1] [2]
Green moved to Tennessee in 1993 and then to Florida in 2006. She moved to Old Bridge, New Jersey in 2020. [2]
Green died at the Roosevelt Care Center on Thursday, February 17, 2022. [2]
Green began writing in high school. She styled her early writings after her favorite writer, Robert A. Heinlein. [3]
Before becoming a full-time author, she worked in several industries including as an AT&T shareowner correspondent, a construction assistant, then a bar steel assistant sales manager at an import firm. [2]
Green began her full time writing career in 1984. Her early works were marketed as similar to John Norman's Gor series, [4] but were actually intended as a rebuttal to Gor. [5] Green said that she set out first to lampoon Norman's Gor books by creating three-dimensional female characters and powerful female characters in similar fantasy settings. [6] Throughout her career she focused on writing strong female characters. [3]
This is a selected list of Green's published works.
Her website [7] reissued some of her older out-of-print books and released several new unissued eBooks series. [8]
