SFF Author: Thomas Ligotti

Thomas Ligotti(1953- )
Thomas Ligotti was born in 1953 in Detroit Michigan, and grew up in that area. He worked as an editor for the Gale Group before leaving in 2001 to write full time. He has published numerous short story collections and won many regional awards for his fiction, which is described by some as Lovecraftian horror. Ligotti sites H.P.

Ligotti, who currently lives in Florida, is reclusive.
