About the author
Born Milton Lesser in Brooklyn in 1928, Stephen Marlowe studied at the College of William & Mary and began publishing science fiction under his birth name. He later adopted the Marlowe name for his mystery novels, becoming best known for the long-running Chester Drum series and writing more than 60 novels under several names.
Marlowe’s later work turned toward ambitious fictional biographies, including Colossus, about Francisco Goya, The Memoirs of Christopher Columbus, The Death and Life of Miguel de Cervantes, and The Lighthouse at the End of the World, centered on Edgar Allan Poe. He also served as William & Mary’s first writer-in-residence from 1974 to 1975. He died in Williamsburg, Virginia, in 2008.
