Revision as of 01:24, 17 September 2009
Jeff Lindsay is the pen name of American playwright and crime novelist Jeffry P. Freundlich (born July 14, 1952), best known for his novels about sociopathic vigilante Dexter Morgan. Many of his earlier published works include his wife Hilary Hemingway as a co-author. His wife is the niece of Ernest Hemingway and an author in her own right. Time Blender was written with Michael Dorn (of Star Trek fame). Lindsay was born in Miami[1] and graduated from Ransom Everglades high school and Middlebury College, Vermont, in 1975.[2]
The first book in the series, Darkly Dreaming Dexter (which he wanted to name "Pinocchio Bleeds" after his middle daughter suggested it but his publisher disagreed), was included on the original nomination list for the Mystery Writers of America's Edgar Awards in the Best First Novel category. However, it was dropped from the list after the group learned that Lindsay had put out several books in the 1990s under another pen name, Jeffrey P. Lindsay.[3]
Dexter aired as a 2006 TV series on Showtime with the first season loosely based on Darkly Dreaming Dexter. The second season aired the following year and the third premiered in September, 2008, but both are original storylines that do not follow the plot of the books. On October 21, 2008, Showtime renewed the series for a fourth and fifth season, each consisting of 12 episodes. Production is slated to begin in early 2009, with season four presumably airing late in 2009.[4] Lindsay had a cameo role in the tenth episode of the third season of "Dexter".[5]
