Mark Shepherd war ein amerikanischer Fantasy-Autor und Musiker, dessen Werk oft Erzählung mit musikalischer Komposition verband. Er war insbesondere ein Schützling und persönlicher Sekretär der Autorin Mercedes Lackey, mit der er mehrere Romane verfasste.

Seine Beiträge bereicherten das Fantasy-Genre durch seine unverwechselbare Stimme und innovative Präsentation.
