Шаблон:Infobox writer Harlan Coben (born c. 1962) is an American writer of mystery novels and thrillers. The plots of his novels often involve the resurfacing of unresolved or misinterpreted events in the past, murders, or fatal accidents and have multiple twists. Nine of his novels have been adapted into Netflix series.
Coben has won an Edgar Award, a Shamus Award, and an Anthony Award—the first author to receive all three.[1][2] His books have been translated into 43 languages and sold over 60 million copies.[3]
Early life and education
Coben was born into a Jewish family in Newark, New Jersey, and was raised in Livingston,[4] where he graduated from Livingston High School, with his childhood friend, future governor Chris Christie.[5]
He studied political science at Amherst College, where he was a member of the Psi Upsilon fraternity, along with Dan Brown.[6][7] Coben was in his senior year at college when he realized he wanted to write.[8]
Career
After graduating in 1984, Coben worked in the travel industry, in a company owned by his grandfather.[6][8] It was during that time when he wrote his first book, romantic suspense thriller Play Dead, which was accepted for publication when he was 26 and released in 1990.[8] It was followed by Miracle Cure in 1991. He then began writing a series of thrillers featuring a former basketball player turned sports agent, Myron Bolitar, who often finds himself investigating murders involving his clients.
Tell No One, his first stand-alone thriller since the creation of the Myron Bolitar series in 1995, was published in 2001. A French-language film adaptation based on the book was released in 2006.[9] Coben followed Tell No One with nine more stand-alone novels. His novel Hold Tight, published on April 15, 2008, was his first book to debut at number 1 on the New York Times Best Seller list.[10]
In 2003, Coben published a short story about his father, who had died of a heart attack at the age of 59 in 1988.[3][11] Entitled "The Key to My Father," the story was published in The New York Times on Father's Day, June 15, 2003.[12] Besides The New York Times, his essays and columns have appeared in Parade Magazine and Bloomberg Views.[13]
