Whitley Strieber
Whitley Strieber is an American author of horror, science fiction, fantasy and thriller novels and non-fiction books (largely on the paranormal topics). He writes the Communion series, which is based on his own experiences as an abductee by “visitors” (which he doesn’t conclude are necessarily aliens from outer space). Strieber graduated from the University of Texas at Austin and the London School of Film Technique, then began an advertising career that he gave up to begin writing. He is a frequent guest on the radio show Coast to Coast AM and hosts his own podcast called Dreamland – a radio show he took over from Art Bell. His books The Wolfen , The Hunger and Communion have all been made into films. Whitley lives in California with his wife (and sometimes collaborator) Anne.
