Rachel Pollack is a poet, an award-winning novelist, a comic book writer, an authority on the modern interpretation of Tarot cards, and a Tarot card artist.   

Her novel Godmother Night won the 1997 World Fantasy Award and was described by Kirkus Reviews as “a magical exploration of the deepest roots of life and death.” Her earlier novel, Unquenchable Fire, won Britain's Arthur C. Clarke Award, and was described by The New York Review of Science Fiction as "not only the best fantasy of the year, possibly the best of the decade, and the best feminist novel of the decade."  Her comic’s works include Doom Patrol and the time travel story Time Breakers. 

She has published thirteen books on Tarot, and has written on other non-fiction subjects, including The Body of the Goddess, which traces the origin and development of religion in the human body and nature. Her Shining Tribe Tarot was designed and drawn by Rachel herself. She has had several shows of her artwork, both Tarot and Other images.  Her books have been published in thirteen languages.  She has taught Classes and workshops in Europe, North America, and Australia.
