Gay Courter

Gay Courter is an American author. Her first non-fiction work, The Beansprout Book (1973), introduced beansprouts to American supermarkets and the general public. She eventually became known as "The Pied Piper of sprouting." Her works have been translated into several languages, including French, Spanish, and Swedish. Courter is credited with being one of the first female writers to write a published novel on a word processor.
