Cynthia Freeman (born January 10, 1915, New York, New York, U.S.—died October 22, 1988, San Francisco, California) was an American author who rocketed to the top of the best-seller list with such romance novels as A World Full of Strangers (1975), Fairytales (1977), Days of Winter (1978), Come Pour the Wine (1980), No Time for Tears (1981), and The Last Princess (1988), all penned under the pseudonym Cynthia Freeman. She launched her writing career at age 50, and though she never garnered critical acclaim, Freeman acquired a huge and enthusiastic readership with her tales of Jewish immigrants in the United States. Her novels were translated into many languages and sold more than 20 million copies. Her last book, Always and Forever, appeared posthumously in 1990.
