Diana Stevan

Diana Stevan likes to joke she’s a Jill of all trades as she’s worked as a family therapist, teacher, librarian, model, actress and sports reporter for CBC television. With writing her passion, she’s published newspaper articles, poetry; a short story, and a novelette, The Blue Nightgown, a coming-of-age story set in the 1950s.

Her novels cross genres: A Cry from the Deep, a time-slip romantic mystery/adventure; The Rubber Fence, women’s fiction, inspired by her work on a psychiatric ward in the 1970s, and the award-winning Sunflowers Under Fire, historical fiction / family saga set in Russia. Her new novel, Lilacs in the Dustbowl, the sequel to Sunflowers Under Fire, launches on May 13, 2021.

When Diana isn’t writing, she loves to garden, travel, and read. With their two daughters grown, she lives with her husband Robert on Vancouver Island and West Vancouver, British Columbia.
