Autorenporträt
Mr. Brennan earned a B.S. in European History from the United States Military Academy at West Point and an M.S. in Journalism from Columbia University in New York. He's the author of Resistance, and a series of space books including Zero Phase, Public Loneliness, Island of Clouds, Infinite Blues, and the forthcoming Alone on the Moon. He's done extensive original research for all of his books; for Resistance he made three trips to Prague and visited every site associated with the Heydrich assassination, as well as bicycling the likely routes the assassins probably took. For his space titles, he's conducted interviews with former astronauts (some of whom have walked on the moon) and consulted retired NASA engineers, but budgetary constraints have prevented on-site outer space research. (So far.) His writing has appeared in the Chicago Tribune, Hypertext Magazine, The Good Men Project, and Innerview Magazine. He's the founder of Tortoise Books; he's also been a frequent contributor and co-editor at Back to Print and The Deadline. He resides in Chicago.
