Dana Cain

Dana Cain, a lifelong science fiction fan, has written hundreds of published articles, along with several poems and songs, and nearly a dozen non-fiction books. Her decades-long journalism career focused on entertainment, art, film and music. Cain’s collectibles books have explored UFOs & Aliens, Film & TV Monsters, Dinosaurs, Japanese Movie Monsters and more. Cain’s most notable science fiction work is The Android’s New Soul, a post-apocalyptic romcom rock musical, released as a double album in 2018 and staged last September at Denver’s popular Bug Theater. To her delight, the show drew large crowds, gushing reviews, and several awards. Cain is now focused on her next sci-fi romcom project, set in space and wrapped around an alien abduction parody. Originally designed for TV, she is converting it into a book series. When she’s not reading, watching or writing sci-fi, Cain owns and operates a number of large festivals in Colorado, including The Unicorn Festival, Cat Fest Colorado, The Denver Dog Fair and four chocolate festivals. She has won 16 Westword Best of Denver awards.
