Elizabeth Zelvin writes two long-running fiction series, the Mendoza Family Saga and the Bruce Kohler Mysteries. Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine has called her "one of our genre's most celebrated short story writers." Her poetry was published widely during the Second Wave of the women's movement and collected as I Am the Daughter. Her second book of poems explored the experience of the therapist at midlife. A third poetry book, The Old Lady Shows Her Mettle, is forthcoming. Liz was one of the pioneers of online mental health.
