Michael Connelly Bio

Michael Connelly

Ace: First off, please forgive me for being late. I was on an all night surveilance keeping tabs on a wayward spouse. You were born in Massachusetts and raised in Washington, D.C. Right?

Connelly: I was born in Philadelphia, but I grew up in Florida. My family moved to Fort Lauderdale when I was eleven, and I didn't leave until I was thirty.

Ace: Whatever... And you were an only child. Right?

Connelly: I have two brothers and three sisters.

Ace: No kidding! All writers, eh?

Connelly: All are in creative endeavours, but I am the only professional writer.¹

Michael Connelly Quote

"I've heard stories about the subconscious taking over and the characters taking on lives of their own. I don't experience that. I don't even understand that. To me, writing is a craft and I work at it. So when I compose my stories no characters — let alone the main character — do things I don't expect. They do what I tell them — through the writing — to do."
