Biographical / Historical

Sheila Moon was born December 25, 1910, in Denver, CO, and died August 25, 1991, in San Francisco, CA. She was a professor of Psychology, an analyst, and a poet. Her books for young people were mostly in the science fiction genre. She loved to write outdoors, and wrote, as she said, because she could not do otherwise.
