Victoria N. Alexander, Ph.D., is a literary fiction novelist, writing about censored and controversial subjects with audacity, humor, and compassion. Her honors include the Washington Prize for Fiction (Smoking Hopes) Dallas Observer‘s “Best of 2003” (Naked Singularity) and the Literary Fiction Book Review award (Locus Amoenus).  Her latest novel, Locus Amoenus, was also a Dayton Literary Peace Prize nominee.

Alexander is also a philosopher of science, author of The Biologist’s Mistress: Rethinking Self-Organization in Art, Literature and Nature.  She is a Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Center alum, former Public Scholar for the New York Council for the Humanities, and 2020 Fulbright Scholar at the Digital Humanities Lab at ITMO University in St Petersburg, Russia. She is a member of the Third Way of Evolution group and her work in saltational evolutionary theory appears in Fine Lines: Nabokov’s Scientific Art, published by Yale University Press, which has received much praise from major international publications.
