Jackson, Steve: - Best-selling and award-winning author and journalist Steve Jackson has written nine non-fiction books in true crime, history and biography genres; he has also written a dozen crime fiction thrillers for the Butch Karp Series in collaboration with former New York assistant district attorney Robert K. Tanenbaum. His latest true crime book, SMOOTH TALKER, was published in May 2016 by a company he started with a partner, Michael Cordova, in August 2014. As of summer 2016, WildBlue Press had published more than two dozen books in true crime, crime fiction, romance, memoir and business genres. The company is rapidly expanding both the number of authors and number of titles, and will be moving into other genres in the Summer 2015. In April 2015, WildBlue Press released an updated version of Jackson's true crime classic NO STONE UNTURNED for the first time in eBook and audiobook. His first book for WildBlue Press was the bestselling BOGEYMAN, which was published in August 2014. His first non-fiction book, MONSTER, a true crime, was published in October 1998 and within two weeks became a NYTimes bestseller. In 2003, his World War II dramatic narrative, LUCKY LADY, received The Colorado Book Award, best biography/history, from the Colorado Center for the Book; Lucky Lady was also the runner-up that year for the Admiral Samuel Morrison Naval History Award. In June 2013, Jackson joined forensic investigative team NecroSearch International, the group featured in NO STONE UNTURNED, searching for the remains of the Grand Duke Mikhail Romanov in Perm, Russia as part of his research for an upcoming dramatic history FINDING ANASTASIA. He and the team returned to Russia to continue the search in June 2015 and will again in July 2016. Born in Bethesda Naval Hospital in 1955, Jackson grew up in Hawaii and Colorado.
