Timeline
Reed Farrel Coleman (born March 29, 1956) is an American writer of crime fiction and a poet.
Reed Farrel Coleman, the youngest of three boys, was born and raised in the Sheepshead Bay, Coney Island, Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn.
As a teenager, he heard a shot while walking to work, and saw a man lying in the street with a fatal stomach wound.
That is when he realized, "People do get hurt."
He started writing in high school.
He has worked at an ice cream store, in air freight at Kennedy Airport, as a car leasing agent, in baby food sales, cooking at a restaurant, as a cab driver, and delivering home heating oil.
Coleman met his wife Rosanne at The New School in a writing class.
They have two children, Kaitlin and Dylan.
He now lives on Long Island.
Coleman only considered making writing a career once taking a Brooklyn College detective fiction class.
He is a multiple award-winning author, particularly his Moe Prager series.
Also published are series featuring protagonists Gulliver Dowd, Dylan Klein, and Joe Serpe.
The Dowd character was based on a retired police detective that he had met.
The Joe Serpe novels were originally written under the pen name Tony Spinosa, but are now available as Coleman titles.
He has written the stand-alone novels Tower with Ken Bruen, Bronx Reqiem with Det. (ret.) John Roe of the NYPD, Gun Church, and several short stories, essays, and poems.
Coleman has won Anthony, Audie, Barry, Macavity and Shamus Awards.
His books and stories have additionally been nominated for Gumshoe and Edgar Awards.
The books have been translated into seven languages.
He says, though, that his single greatest writing influence was his college poetry professor, David Lehman, who provided "permission to be a writer and...the first clues on self-editing".
NPR has referred to him as "a hard-boiled poet", The Huffington Post says, "Coleman is the resident noir poet laureate of the United States" and The New York Times has commented, "If you dragged one (of his books) across the asphalt, you'd half-expect it to leave a chalk outline".
