Since elementary school, STEPHEN TEMPLIN felt a need to write, dreaming of becoming a novelist. Today, he is a New York Times and international bestselling author, with the movie rights to one of his books purchased by Vin Diesel. Steve’s work has been translated into thirteen languages. He is a “hybrid” author who maintains active book contracts with top publishers such as Simon and Schuster and St. Martin’s Press, while also publishing independently.
After high school, he completed Hell Week, qualified as a pistol and rifle expert, blew up things, and practiced small unit tactics during Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training. Later, Steve left the Navy and became a missionary. He earned his PhD in education, and for fourteen years he lectured as a tenured professor at Meio University in Japan, where he also practiced the martial art aikido. Currently, he lives in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
