Some days at the reference desk it seems that only two or three sources are necessary to successfully answer all of the day's questions.  One of these few sources is always Contemporary Authors. &#133; With more than 100,000 writers listed, CA has been the source for quick information on authors since 1962. &#133;  It is essential for libraries to have the Contemporary Authors series.  -- ARBA (American Reference Books Annual) 1999

A few years ago when I was introducing Richard Wilbur at a reading in Key West, I asked him for information, and he gave me his Contemporary Authors  bio. That's a testimony! Thank you for giving us all the chance to set the records straight.  -- Annie Dillard, author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, winner of Pulitzer Prize for general nonfiction, 1975 (10-97)

Comprehensive information on well-known and less-famous authors from all genres.  -- Writer (11/05/94)

I am delighted and honored to be included in this distinguished volume.  --  Frederick Morgan, Founder, Hudson Review

[CA's] summary of my book, 'Deadly Force,' and the complex controversy that surrounded it is the most precise, most revealing, and best written piece on the subject, including those done by the New York Times, Time Magazine, People Magazine.  --  Lawrence F. O'Donnell, Jr., author

What a job your researchers do.  -- Isaac Asimov, novelist

This is an academic work aimed at students from high school to university, and their teachers, as well as being of potential value to a wide range of researchers in many disciplines and fields of endeavor...a notable achievement in reference publishing.  Either the whole set or selected individual volumes will be of value in a range of libraries from senior schools, through universities and public libraries to major media organizations.  This volume marks a very meritorious and welcome anniversary.  --UK Reference Reviews, November 7, 2008

Your writer did a fine job with [my] sketch -- it's amazingly accurate. I can't tell you with what dread I approached reading this -- so much that has been published [about me] is in error. This is solid research.

Thank you for the excellent work you've done on my CA entry.  --  Chinua Achebe, author
