Born in Indianapolis, Steve Englehard went to Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. He studied Psychology because people fascinated him, but in getting his B.A. he learned that psychology didn't describe real people, so he became a writer.
He began his writing career on Marvel's Captain America in the early 1970s, and soon added The Hulk, The Avengers, Thor, Dr. Strange, and half a dozen other series. He moved by DC Comics by the late 1970s to write a series of Batman tales and more.
After Batman he traveled around Europe for a year and wrote his first novel, The Point Man. Since then he's designed video games for Atari, Activision, Electronic Arts, and others. He's written animation for Street Fighter and G.I. Joe. He's written mid-grade books for Avon, including the DNAgers series, and Countdown to Flight, a biography of the Wright brothers selected by NASA as the basis for their school programs on the invention of the aeroplane. And he's written more comics, like Fantastic Four and Silver Surfer, which led to the San Diego Comic-Con calling him comics' most successful writer, having had more hits with more characters at more companies than anyone else in comics history. He created The Night Man, which became a live-action television series. Most recently, The Point Man has engendered a series of novels from Tor, beginning with The Long Man.
