Another good one gone
Vonda N. McIntyre may be best known for trying to make the novelization an art form, filling out and explaining Star Treks II-IV. (Among other things, she gave Mr. Sulu a first name, which became canon.) She then novelized a nonexistent TV show (Starfarers) and wrote two Nebula-winning novels: Dreamsnake and The Moon and the Sun. It is reported that she finished one last novel before cellular life on its own terms got her.
