__NOTOC__
'Nancy Kress' (born 'Nancy Anne Koningisor 'in Buffalo, New York on January 20, 1948) is an American science fiction writer. She began writing in 1976 but has achieved her greatest notice since the publication of her Hugo and Nebula-winning novella "Beggars in Spain" in 1990. Kress pens a regular column for ''Writer's Digest''.
She grew up in East Aurora, New York and attended college at SUNY Plattsburgh. In 1973, she moved to Rochester to marry Michael Joseph Kress. They had two sons, and divorced in 1984. At that time, she went to work at Stanton and Hucko, an advertising agency. In 1998, she married Charles Sheffield, who died in 2002 of a brain tumor. Kress moved back to Rochester, New York, to be near her grown children.
She tends to write technically realistic stories set in a fairly near future that has a plausible connection to the present. Her fiction often involves genetic engineering, and, to a lesser degree, artificial intelligence.
She loves ballet, and has written stories around it.
