About the author
A former journalist, Thomas Harris was born on September 22, 1940, in Tennessee and built his reputation writing dark, tightly controlled suspense fiction. He is best known for the series of novels featuring Hannibal Lecter, including Red Dragon, The Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal, and Hannibal Rising.
Although his public profile has always been unusually low for such a successful writer, his work has had an enormous cultural impact. Several of his novels were adapted for film and television, and The Silence of the Lambs became especially influential, helping make Lecter one of the most recognizable characters in modern fiction.
