AUTHOR • PSYCHOANALYST •  ARTIST 

Maggie Moor is a Gradiva-nominated clinician and the creator of Charmay: New York Noir.

Hailed as “undeniably powerful (BookLife) and a “must-read” (IndieReader) Moor writes literary psychological suspense that offers a perspective of rare depth—where raw lived experience meets a piercing gift for observation. Her body of work traces a continuous, deeply personal timeline of psychological exploration.

Through the fierce lens of a femme fatale, Moor’s stream-of-consciousness prose places you inside the narrator’s mind in real time—a “subversion of the noir trope” that is intimate, human, and “deeply moving” (Kirkus Reviews)—in a unique, “street poetry that vacillates between beauty and despair” (Foreword Reviews).

An author, licensed psychoanalyst, Gradiva-nominated clinician, and national-level NPC fitness competitor, Moor brings a unique background in integrative health and healing to her work. She is the author of the wellness book I AM: Mind-Body Union, and has recorded music with jazz and rock royalty—including David Sanborn, Richie Cannata, Kenny Rampton, Eddie Ojeda, and Buddy Williams—all featured on her Charmay: New York Noir albums.
