Elliot S! Maggin has been making up stories as long as he can remember. He started publishing them when he was 17. He made his living for a long time writing comic books, including a 15-year run as principal writer of Superman for DC Comics. He was educated at Brandeis and Columbia Universities and his most impressive accomplishments are his two outlandishly brilliant adult children. He has written journalism, novels, television and film for lots of publishers and producers. The kind of writing he likes best is the kind he can make up.
