Richard Dirrane Bowes (January 8, 1944 – December 24, 2023) was an American author described as an "urban fantasist" whose stories tended to be "set in, and to evoke, a congested, magically altered New York." He won two World Fantasy Awards for his short fiction along with the Lambda Award for his 1999 mosaic novel Minions of the Moon. He was also an eight-time finalist for the Nebula Award, including for his often-reprinted short story "There's a Hole in the City."
