Rabbi Ilene Schneider decided to be a writer at a young age. Despite spending her retirement birding, gardening, watching movies, traveling, and over-sharing on Facebook, she is the author of the award-winning Rabbi Aviva Cohen Mysteries: Chanukah Guilt, Unleavened Dead, and Yom Killer. The fourth book, KillerMegillah, is forthcoming. She is also one of the contributors to the popular Jewish Noir story collection, and she wrote Talking Dirty—in Yiddish?, the revised and expanded version of her bestselling book Talk Dirty Yiddish: Beyond Drek. Schneider also manages a website of questions and answers about Chanukah (http://whyninecandles.com).
