Rosel George Brown

Rosel George Brown (March 15, 1926 – November 26, 1967) was an American science fiction author.

[1] Born in New Orleans, Louisiana,[2] she lived in the city of her birth with her husband after concluding her formal education at Sophie Newcomb College, where she majored in ancient Greek, and at the University of Minnesota where she received her M.A.

Brown's works were mainly written in the late 1950s to the mid-1960s and generally were favorably received by critics and readers.

Rob Latham, reviewing Galactic Suburbia: Recovering Women's Science Fiction by Lisa Yaszek, notes that Yaszek's inclusion of Rosel George Brown is important viewing her, along with Margaret St. Clair, Zenna Henderson, Mildred Clingerman, and Doris Pitkin Buck as "significant 1950s talents now in danger of lapsing into obscurity.

A collection of Brown's short stories, entitled A Handful of Time, was published by Ballantine Books in 1963.
