Ursula K. Le Guin is one of the most distinctive and celebrated voices in the landscape of literature.

Who is the woman behind these incredible works of fiction? Ursula K. Le Guin introduces readers to the award-winning creator of such momentous works as The Lathe of Heaven, The Left Hand of Darkness, and A Wizard of Earthsea, and traces her journey from Depression-era California to the farthest reaches of the imagination.
