Order of A.C. Crispin Books
Ann Carol Crispin (1950-2013) was an American author of science fiction novels. She writes the Starbridge series, and several movie tie-in novels (such as works set in universes such as Star Wars, Star Trek, and more). She is a New York Times bestselling author, and was named a Grandmaster in 2013 by the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers. Ann earned her Bachelor’s degree in English Literature in 1972 from the University of Maryland. She began her career as a novelist in 1983. Eventually, she would become known for her ability to create backstories for characters from other mediums, and was nicknamed the “Queen of the Backstory.” Ann passed away in 2013, but not before she got the opportunity to write a farewell message to her fans.
