Ava Reid
Ava Reid is an American novelist of dark fantasy and gothic fiction, writing for both adult and young adult audiences. She is known for The Wolf and the Woodsman, Juniper & Thorn, and A Study in Drowning. Her work often blends folklore, horror, history, and psychological tension in contemporary speculative fiction.
Биография и Путь Автора
Ava Reid emerged from a background that already pointed toward the concerns that would define her fiction. Born in Manhattan and raised in Hoboken, New Jersey, she studied political science at Barnard College with a focus on religion and ethnonationalism, then worked for a refugee resettlement organization, a U.S. senator, and an AI robotics startup. Those experiences fed a body of work preoccupied with power, belief, exile, and contested identity. A key turning point came through the online writing world: Reid has said she came up through Pitch Wars, where mentor Isabel Ibañez and the community around the program helped set The Wolf and the Woodsman on its path to publication.
