Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Brenda W. Clough (also credited as B.W. Clough) (pronounced Cluff)[1] is an American science fiction and fantasy writer.[2] She has been nominated for the Hugo[3] and Nebula Awards in 2002 for her novella May Be Some Time. As of 2014, she taught writing workshops at the Writers Center in Bethesda, Maryland.[4]

Background and personal life

Born Brenda Wang on November 13, 1955, in Washington, D.C., she is the child of Chinese immigrants. In a 2014 interview, she related that "for the first five years of my life I spoke only Chinese. I am told that I started kindergarten without a word of English. I can remember nothing of this, and now only speak Chinese at, you guessed it, a five-year-old level."[5]

She is a self-described "State Department brat" who spent a large amount of her childhood and teenage years living in Europe and Asia (including Manila and Hong Kong) due to her father's career.[6] According to her website, "as a girl" she attended the American School of Vientiane in Laos. She later attended Carnegie Mellon University.

She lives with her husband, Larry Clough,[7] in Portland, Oregon.[8]
