'''Kathe Koja''' (born [[1960]]) is an [[United States|American]] writer. She was initially known for her intense [[speculative fiction]] for adults, but over the past few years has turned to writing [[Young adult literature|young adult]] novels. Koja is also a prolific author of [[short stories]], including many in collaboration with [[Barry N. Malzberg]]. Most of her short fiction remains uncollected. Koja's novels and short stories frequently concern characters who have been in some way marginalized by society, often focusing on the transcendence and/or disintergration which proceeds this social isolation (as in ''The Cipher'', ''Bad Brain'', "Teratisms," ''The Blue Mirror'', etc.).
She lives near [[Detroit, Michigan]], and is married to the illustrator [[Rick Lieder]], who often does her book jackets.
