Linda Fite

Linda Fite (Jan 19, 1945) is an American writer and editor who wrote the entire four issue run of the Marvel Comics series The Cat. from 1968–1971, she was given only short back-up features in The Uncanny X-Men and Rawhide Kid. In 1972, she got her first offer to be a regular writer, on Claws of the Cat, an early and unsuccessful attempt to appeal to female superhero comic readers. Fite was selected because Marvel's editorial staff thought a series targeted toward female readers should have a female creative team.

Fite worked for the Times Herald-Record, a daily newspaper based in Middletown, New York, and was managing editor of the BlueStone Press in Ulster County, New York.

Fite was married to, and then divorced, Marvel Comics artist Herb Trimpe. They had three children together.
