Growing up in the sixties, C.F. Yankovich spent weekends curled up with her uncle's discarded collection 
of Edgar Rice Burroughs novels.  Most of her allowance ended up at the corner drugstore, traded for 
paperback science fiction from a battered bookrack.  At the University of Iowa, she studied physics and 
math, worked as a technician for the space sciences group (headed by the legendary James Van Allen), 
and passed weekends selling paintings at student art shows along the riverwalk. 

Currently, she spends her days disguised as a meek programmer for the State of Arizona, and her 
evenings writing and painting.  Primarily a space and science fiction artist, she is a life-time member of 
both the International Association for the Astronomical Arts and the Association of Science Fiction and 
Fantasy Artists (ASFA).  Her art has appeared in AD ASTRA, ANALOG, and MARION ZIMMER 
BRADLEY'S FANTASY MAGAZINE.  Collectors of her work include author Rick Cook.

Her works have appeared in many local, national, and international exhibitions, including the Hub 
Gallery, the Fiske Planetarium, the Casa Grande Art Museum, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, 
the Bergen Museum, and the American Museum of Natural History.
