Authors A to Z - Kim Newman

Kim Newman Kim Newman is an author, film expert and critic, an enthusiastic pundit of SF writing and one of Britain's great eccentrics.

Born in Brixton in 1959, he grew up in Somerset, graduated in English at Sussex University, before coming to London in 1980 working with the Bridgwater Arts and Entertainment Collective as a kazoo player and cabaret performer.

He is the author of several specialist film books and is a regular film reviewer and contributing editor for Empire and Sight and Sound magazines.

His books include The Night Mayor, Bad Dreams, Jago, The Quorum, Life's Lottery and his reworkings of the Dracula mythology Anno Dracula (which won the Children Of The Night Award for Best Novel from the Dracula Society and the Best Novel Award from the Lord Ruthven Assembly. It was also shortlisted for the Bram Stoker Award and the World Fantasy Award), The Bloody Red Baron and Dracula, cha, cha, cha. He has also published four collections of short stories: Famous Monsters, The Original Doctor Shade, Seven Stars and Unforgivable Stories, and his Where the Bodies are Buried... series of stories were recently collected in a limited edition hardback.

He is a regular contributor to the annual anthology series' Best New Horror and Dark Terrors and is a columnist for Shivers magazine.
