RIP: Ann Crispin (1950-2013)

http://www.startrek.com/article/remembering-trek-author-ann-crispin-1950-2013

StarTrek.com is saddened to report the passing of Ann C. Crispin, better known to millions of book aficionados as A.C. Crispin. Crispin, who died today, was the acclaimed, award-winning author of numerous books, including the iconic Star Trek titles Sarek, Yesterday’s Son and Time for Yesterday. Her non-Star Trek work included her own, original StarBridge series, as well as tie-in novels set in the realms of Star Wars, V, Alien and Pirates of the Caribbean. Crispin had waged a long battle with bladder cancer and, on September 3, she took to her Facebook page to thank her fans for their good wishes and prayers, but also to reveal that the end of the battle was near.

She announced a few days ago that she was about to die, too young like so many that have succumbed to cancer. I've only read her Star Trek books but she was one of my favorites (right up there with Peter David) in that series.
