Biography

Jon Franklin is the first writer in history to ever receive two first-in-category Pulitzer Prizes.  A pioneer in the narrative nonfiction movement — creating nonfiction that reads as easily as fiction — Franklin is known for his easy style and his ability to take the reader to places unknown.  His stories and books will allow you to climb Kitt Peak to peer through one of the world’s most powerful telescopes, watch over the shoulders of brain surgeons as they save a patient’s life, travel back in time to uncover the secrets of our own behavioral evolution. All this, without leaving the comfort of your easy chair.
