Neil Gaiman

British · b. 1960

Neil Gaiman started in journalism, moved to comics with The Sandman—which proved that graphic novels could be literary art—and then colonized every storytelling medium available. His novels (American Gods, Coraline, The Ocean at the End of the Lane), his children's books (The Graveyard Book), his TV adaptations (Good Omens), and his short stories demonstrate a mind that finds the mythic in the mundane and the mundane in the mythic. Born in Hampshire, he lives between the US and the UK, which may explain his fascination with what happens when old-world stories arrive in new-world landscapes.
