Susan Taft Quinn (born 1940) is an American writer of non-fiction books and articles.
In 1967, she published her first book under her married name of Susan Jacobs: a nonfiction account of the making of a Broadway play called On Stage (Alfred A. Knopf).
In 1979, she won the Penney-Missouri magazine award for an investigative article for Boston Magazine on dangerous cargo transported through the city, and the Golden Hammer Award from the National Association of Home Builders for an investigative article on home inspections.
Since 1987 Quinn has published three books on scientific and medical subjects and two dealing with artistic, social, and political issues.
Her biography of Marie Curie required seven years of study[1] and was helped by a fellowship from the Guggenheim foundation.
