This is the "official biography" that my publishers use:

Terri Windling is a writer, artist, and editor specializing in fantasy literature and mythic arts. She has published over forty books, winning eight World Fantasy Awards, the Mythopoeic Award, the Bram Stoker Award, and placing on the short list for the Tiptree Award. Her work has been translated into French, German, Spanish, Italian, Czech, Russian, Turkish, Korean, and Japanese.

She has written mythic fiction for both adults and young adults, as well as picture books for children.  Her essays on myth, folklore, and mythic arts have appeared in magazines, art books and anthologies in the United States and Europe, and she has contributed to reference volumes including The Oxford Companion to Fairy Tales and Panorama illustré de la fantasy & du merveilleux.

Windling has also published numerous anthologies, many of them co-edited with Ellen Datlow and created around myth and fairy tale themes.  She edited the award-winning Year's Best Fantasy & Horror annual volumes with Datlow for sixteen years -- publishing the works of A.S. Byatt, Angela Carter, Vikram Chandra, Susanna Clarke, Charles de Lint, Louise Erdrich, Pierrette Fleutiaux, Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Ursula Le Guin, Gregory Maguire, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Steven Millhauser, Haruki Murakami, Peter Straub, Jane Yolen, and other writers of magical literature from around the globe.

Windling's art has appeared in solo and group exhibitions in the United States and Europe, including shows at The Boston Museum of Fine Arts, The Tucson Museum of Contemporary Art, The Words and Pictures Museum, and The Book Arts Gallery. Group exhibitions have included DreamWeavers (a touring show of fantastical art), Fées (a French museum show of fairy tale illustration from the 12th to 21st centuries), and Ancient Spirit, Modern Voice (an international survey of modern mythic art).

Windling is the founder of  The Endicott Studio (a nonprofit organization for mythic arts), and co-editor with Midori Snyder of Endicott's webzine, The Journal of Mythic Arts. She is a consulting editor for Tor Books in New York, and sits on the advisory board of the Mythic Imagination Institute in Atlanta.
