About the Author

Dan Simmons (1948-2026) was born in Illinois in 1948 and grew up in various cities and small towns in the Midwest. He received a BA in English from Wabash College in 1970, winning a national Phi Beta Kappa Award during his senior year for excellence in fiction, journalism and art. His first published story appeared on the day his daughter was born, in 1982, and he always attributed that coincidence to 'helping in keeping things in perspective when it comes to the relative importance of writing and life'. He became a full-time writer in 1987 and was one of the few novelists whose work spanned the genres of fantasy, science fiction, horror, suspense, historical fiction, noir crime fiction and mainstream literary fiction. Dan Simmons won numerous awards, including the Hugo, World Fantasy (for his debut novel, Song of Kali (1985)) and Bram Stoker.
