F. Sue Chandler (1940-2023) died in September 2023 and was known as Sue (or Suzanne) Chandler.[1] She was a British schoolteacher and textbook writer, who, together with co-author Linda Bostock, wrote the "Bostock and Chandler" series of textbooks for advanced level mathematics in the UK. At the time she began the series, she was a full-time mathematics teacher at Southgate Technical College in Southgate, London. She eventually stopped teaching courses and focused on textbook writing. Her books have sold more than 6 million copies.[2][3]
