2003 - Romance Readers Anonymous ''Best Historical Single Title Romance'' for [[Everything I Ever Wanted]] by Jo Goodman

Revision as of 05:32, 17 December 2007


Jo Goodman is the pen name for Joanne Dobrzanski. Her first book was completed in 1979 and finally published in 1984. She chose that pen name because she was always called Jo and Goodman is simply a loose translation of Dobrzanski.

Although she graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a major in biology and a minor in chemistry she found that she was not suited to marine research. Instead she became a therapist. She has been the executive director of a child caring/mental health agency and reports that this work and her writing often compliment each other.

Jo has written 18 historical romances, 3 short stories, and 1 novella. Her first book, Passion's Bride (reprinted in 1998 as The Captain's Lady), won best pirate romance from Romantic Times. Forever In My Heart won a Reader's Choice Award for best historical romance in 1994 and Only In My Arms was a finalist the following year.
