SF Gateway, ebook publisher of Doris Piserchia's fiction, has added a photo of her to its author page. Since discovering her fiction almost 40 years ago, and working on this website (off and on, mostly off) for nearly 20, I've never seen a photo of her, so this is intriguing. I'm personally conflicted about photos, especially in the facial recognition/selfie era, but realize they are a time-honored part of book promotion. Science fiction, as a "disreputable" paperback genre, was mostly anonymous back in the day. The "image" promoted was some weird world that somehow just sprang into existence. Nevertheless, one of my favorite books is Patti Perret's The Faces of Science Fiction, which lovingly depicted the most obscure authors in their mansions or trailers, depending on their career arc. Piserchia is as strong as I imagined her.
