Biography
Born in Zambia to Dawoodi Bohra Muslim expatriate parents from India, she immigrated to Canada with her family in the early 1970s.[1][2][3]
She has published three novels to date, and won the 2011 Dayne Ogilvie Grant from the Writers' Trust of Canada for an emerging lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender writer.[4] Her second novel, Six Metres of Pavement, was also a nominee for the 2012 Lambda Literary Awards in the category of Lesbian Fiction,[5] and was announced as the winner of the award on June 4, 2012.[6] In 2017, it won the One Book, One Brampton award. In 2015, her third novel, All Inclusive, was released in Canada, and it was later released in the US in 2017. It was a Kobo 2015 and National Post Best Book of the Year.
In addition to her writing career, Doctor works as a registered social worker, in a private psychotherapy practice, coordinates a regular reading series in Toronto's Brockton Village neighbourhood,[7] and coproduced Rewriting The Script: A Loveletter to Our Families, a documentary film about the family relationships of LGBT people in Toronto's South Asian immigrant communities.[8]
CBC Books listed Doctor's 2020 novel Seven on its list of Canadian fiction to watch for in spring 2020.[9]
