History lies at the heart of every Steve Berry novel. It’s this
passion, one he shares with his wife, Elizabeth, that led them to
create History Matters, a foundation dedicated to historic
preservation. Since 2009 Steve and Elizabeth have traveled across
the country to save endangered historic treasures, raising money
via lectures, receptions, galas, luncheons, dinners, and their
popular writers’ workshops. To date, nearly 2,500 students have
attended those workshops. In 2012 their work was recognized by the
American Library Association, which named Steve the first spokesman
for National Preservation Week. He was also appointed by the
Smithsonian Board of Regents to serve on the Smithsonian Libraries
Advisory Board to help promote and support the libraries in their
mission to provide information in all forms to scientists,
curators, scholars, students, and the public at large. He has
received the Royden B. Davis Distinguished Author Award and the
2013 Writers for Writers Award from Poets & Writers. His novel The
Columbus Affair earned him the Anne Frank Human Writes Award, and
his historic preservation work merited the 2013 Silver Bullet from
International Thriller Writers.
Steve Berry was born and raised in Georgia, graduating from the
Walter F. George School of Law at Mercer University. He was a trial
lawyer for 30 years and held elective office for 14 of those years.
He is a founding member of International Thriller Writers—a group
of more than 2,600 thriller writers from around the world—and
served three years as its co-president.
