Wendy M. Grossman (born January 26, 1954, New York City) is a journalist, blogger, and folksinger. She graduated from Cornell University in 1975 and Riverdale Country School in 1971. She was a full-time folksinger from 1975–83 and her folk album ''Roseville Fair'' was released in 1980, and MP3s from it are available on her Web site. She also played on Archie Fisher's 1976 LP "The Man With a Rhyme". In 1987, she founded the magazine ''The Skeptic'' in the United Kingdom and edited it for two years, resuming the editorship in 1999-2001. As founder and editor, she has appeared on numerous UK TV and radio programmes. Her credits since 1990 include work for ''Scientific American'', The Guardian, and the ''Daily Telegraph'', as well as ''New Scientist'', ''Wired'' and ''Wired News'', and ''The Inquirer'' for which she wrote a regular weekly ''net.wars'' column. That column continues in ''NewsWireless'' and on her own site every Friday. She was a columnist for ''Internet Today'' from July 1996 until it closed in April 1997, and together with Dominic Young ran the Fleet Street Forum on CompuServe UK in the mid-1990s. She also sometimes writes about tennis. She edited an anthology of interviews with leading computer industry figures taken from the pages of the British computer magazine ''Personal Computer World''. Entitled ''Remembering the Future'', it was published in January 1997 by Springer Verlag. Her 1998 book ''net.wars'' was one of the first to have its full text published on the Web. She was a member of the external advisory board of the Intellectual Property and Law Centre at Edinburgh University (the board was disbanded after the centre became established). She was president of the Cornell Folk Song Club, the oldest university-affiliated, student-run folk song club in the US, from 1973 to 1975.
