Stephen King was born in 1947, in Portland, Maine. He is one of Americas most famous authors, having written over 200 stories, including over 50 best-selling horror and fantasy novels.
When King was a young boy, he apparently witnessed a horrible, gruesome accident - a
childhood friend of his was struck and killed by a train. King claims that he has no recollection of the incident, but his parents insist that it happened - and many commentators say that this event is the basis of Kings turn into writing horror.
King received a bacehlors degree in English from The University of Maine, where he also met Tabitha Spruce, the woman he would later marry. After college, King and his wife lived in a trailer, and he became a high-school teacher while writing short stories for mens magazines to make ends meet.

Kings first big break was the publishing of his first novel, Carrie, about a young girl with psychic powers. While King was first writing the story, he became discouraged and threw all of it in the trash. His wife removed the writings from the garbage and convinced King to send it to a publisher. He did just that, received a $2,500 advance for his work, and his fabulous writing career was well on its way.
King has battled problems with drugs and alcohol in his past, and even admits that he was the basis for the alcoholic father in The Shining. He also survived a serious car accident in 1999, which he says sparked even more creativity into his writings.
These days, King still writes horror, although at a much slower pace than in the past. He spends much of his time rooting for his beloved Boston Red Sox, and donates much of his time and money to local YMCAs.
You can enjoy all of Kings awesome work through the wonderful world of audio books! Listen to such classics such as Desperation, Storm of the Century, Christine, and The Stand. Or if you dare, lay down in bed at night with a horror such as It, or Insomnia!
