About the Author

David J. Schow first wrote about zombies of a sort in the short story “Bunny Didn’t Tell Us” in 1979 (not published until 1985). Then Book of the Dead shambled along and he became the only contributor with two stories in Volume One: the notorious “Jerry’s Kids Meet Wormboy” and the opening story, “Blossom,” written under the pseudonym “Chan McConnell.” Chan reappeared in Volume Two with “DON’t WALK,” making Schow the only writer with three stories in the duology. Then Chan got gruesomely killed as part of the story “Dying Words,” the whole Schow/McConnell chronology being explicated in the milestone collection Zombie Jam (2005), illustrated by zombie-meister Bernie Wrightson. With some bemusement, Schow watched as his tales of resurrected walkers—first called “geeks” in “Jerry’s Kids,” by the way—got strip-mined for assorted comic books and movie remakes. Under the present-day zombie boom, most of Schow’s tales have been scooped up for reissue in a number of phonebook-sized anthologies about the living dead. He may yet have the last word. Until then he remains active in film/TV (most recent movie: The Hills Run Red [2009]) and publishing (with Internecine, a suspense novel;Hunt Among The Killers of Men, a pulp novel; and The Art of Drew Struzan, all 2010).
