Jo Graham is an American author who debuted in 2008 with her novel Black Ships, a re-imagination of The Aeneid. She lives in Maryland.[1] Her influences as a writer are Mary Renault and James Michener, both of whom wrote novels about places and situations unusual for most readers.[2]

Black Ships received a star rating when reviewed by Publishers Weekly[3] and was nominated for the 2009 Locus Award for Best First Novel.[4] Her second novel, Hand of Isis (March 2009), which features the reincarnated main character of Black Ships, was given a starred review by Kirkus Reviews.[5]

Her forthcoming works include several Stargate Atlantis tie-in novels to be published by Fandemonium Press.
