S.J. (Shira Judith) Rozan was born in 1950 in the Bronx, New York.
She grew up with two sisters and a brother, and has a passion for basketball.
She graduated from Oberlin College with a bachelor's degree, and received a master's in architecture from the State University of New York at Buffalo.
She is a lifelong New Yorker and currently lives in Lower Manhattan.
Before her career as an architect, Rozan also worked as a janitor, in jewelry sales, painting houses, book sales, bread baking, as an advertising copywriter, and as a self-defense instructor.
As an architect, she became project manager for a New York firm working on socially useful projects.
She said, "That life was exactly what I wanted, but it wasn't making me happy.... So I decided to go back to this idea I'd had of writing a crime novel."
Rozan's books are set in New York City or start out there.
Her P.I. series features Lydia Chin and Bill Smith, and the books alternate point of view between the two characters.
About them she has revealed, "Lydia is me as I was when I was her age. She’s optimistic and full of energy. She believes that the world can be saved.... Bill, on the other hand, is me as I am now—on a bad day. He’s been through enough bad stuff in his life that he knows what can’t be done."
