Dreher Obituary: View Sarah Dreher's Obituary by The Republican )〕 Amherst, Massachusetts) was an American lesbian novelist and playwright, and best known for her award-winning lesbian mystery series featuring amateur sleuth Stoner McTavish.〔Griffin, Gabriele. ''Who's Who in Lesbian and Gay Writing'', Routledge (59).〕 Her themes include "the anguish of lesbian relationships beginning, ending or mending. Dreher's lesbian protagonists are modern heroes searching for integrity and identity..."〔Zimmerman, Bonnie. ''Lesbian Histories and Cultures'', Taylor and Francis (763).〕 In the resolution of her mysteries, solutions other than resorting to traditional justice system intervention are part of the exploration of society outside the existing social paradigm. Dreher has contributed essays and writings to a number of projects, including ''Off the Rag: Lesbians Writing about Menopause'' by Lee Lynch and Akia Woods, "Waiting for Stonewall" in ''Sexual Practice/Textual Theory: Lesbian Cultural Criticism'',〔Wolfe, Susan J. and Penelope, Julia. ''Sexual Practice/Textual Theory: Lesbian Cultural Criticism''. Cambridge, MA: Blackwell Publishers, 1993〕 and a contributed chapter to ''They Wrote the Book: Thirteen Women Mystery Writers Tell All''.〔Windrath, Helen (editor), ''They Wrote the Book: Thirteen Women Mystery Writers Tell All'', 2000 Spinsters Ink〕 In addition to writing, Dreher was a clinical psychologist in private practice, graduating first from Wellesley College, then gaining a Ph.D. in psychology from Purdue University.〔Pollack, Sandra and Denise D.
