John Peel was born in 1954 in Nottingham, England. He attended
Nottingham University and began his writing career as the editorial
assistant for England's "Apparel Production and Marketing." He
later worked as a comic-strip writer for "Marvel Comics" in London,
and was until recently the overseas television critic for England's
"Starburst" magazine. Since immigrating to the U.S.A. in 1981, John
Peel has worked as a contributing writer and editor for numerous
media-based magazines. He now writes novels full-time from his home
on Long Island, where he resides with his wife, Nan, their wirehair
fox terrier, Dashiell, their orange, spotted tabby, Amika, and
their miniature pinschers, Loki (aptly named after the Norse god of
mischief and destruction), Bartleby, Shadow, Reggie, Tievel, Rocky,
Anubis Princess and Lady Penelope.
He has just sold his first film script, "Haunting Adrian," which is
expected to commence shooting in the near future.
