Broner wrote plays, novels, essays, radio scripts, and short stories, infusing her writing with a strong feminist and Jewish point of view. Her works appear in popular periodicals, literary journals, and anthologies, and she received two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the 1983 Wonder Woman Award.
