Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff (born 1954) is a versatile author, best known for her science fiction and fantasy works. She also writes magic realism, nonfiction, and music -- both original and filk, which she also performs.

Maya, mother of three and married since 1981^[1], has also written many short stories and novelettes, some of them with a significant basis in relation to the Bahá'í Faith, in most of the well known publishing magazines: Analog Magazine, Interzone (magazine), Amazing Stories, Realms of Fantasy, and others. Two brief examples include "Home is Where..."^[2] in which a pair of time traveling historians from the future employ an unusual conflict resolution method when their homesick kids go on strike during a Cold War visit to a US Air Force Base, and "The White Dog" wherein a lady comes to terms with her shocking albino appearance through the allegorical totem used by `Abdu'l-Bahá -- a little white dog.^[3] The story "The White Dog" was a finalist for the 1999 British Science Fiction Award.
