Robert Levy (born 1974) is an American author of novels, stories, and plays. His first novel The Glittering World (2015) was a finalist for both the Shirley Jackson Awards and the Lambda Literary Awards.[1][2] Though primarily a writer of dark fantasy and horror, Levy has published numerous works in many genres, including science fiction, pop culture, mystery, and noir.[3]

Background and education

Levy attended Oberlin College before graduating from Harvard College, where he received a degree in English and American Literature and Language. He went on to earn an MA in Forensic Psychology from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, and is also a graduate of the Clarion Workshop for Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers. He currently lives in his hometown of Brooklyn, New York, with his husband and two children.[4][5][6][7]

Career

At age seventeen, two of Levy's plays were finalists at the Young Playwrights Festival.[8] The next year, his play Mrs. Neuberger's Dead was a festival winner and was subsequently produced Off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons.[9][10] After writing his master's thesis on the perceptual effects of early childhood traumatization,[6] he began his career in publishing. He has since released numerous books under various pen names, as well as many shorter works.[11] His works are often inspired by his training as a forensic psychologist.[5]
