Basic Info| Name: | Laird Barron |
|---|---|
| Birthdate: | 1901-03-05 |
| Location: | Great Falls, Montana, United States |
| Website: | My web site |
BioBorn and raised in Alaska, I did time in the wilderness. I raced in several Iditarods. Later, I got the hell out and migrated to Washington State where I devoted myself to American Combato, reading guys like Parker, Ellroy, and McCarthy, and lifting a lot of iron. At night I wrote tales that smash up noir, crime and horror.
I prefer scotch and the company of an old, loyal dog.
I am the author of several books including The Imago Sequence and The Croning. My work has been reprinted in numerous year’s best anthologies and nominated for multiple honors, including the World Fantasy, International Horror Guild, Sturgeon, Crawford, Locus, and Shirley Jackson awards. I currently reside in Upstate New York and I’m writing a novel about the evil that men do.
