About our cohost
Mark Steensland self-published his first book while in fourth grade and has been telling stories ever since—some of them true. He became a professional journalist before graduating high school, writing about movies for such magazines as Prevue, Millimeter, and American Cinematographer. He holds a bachelor's in film studies from UC Santa Barbara, a master's in creative writing from CSU Sacramento, and an MFA in screenwriting from Chapman University. His award-winning films (including Peekers and The Ugly File) have played in festivals around the world. Feature screenplays include The Special, based on a novella co-written with James Newman, and Jakob's Wife, starring Barbara Crampton, Larry Fessenden, and Bonnie Aarons. His first novel—Behind the Bookcase—was published in 2012 by Random House. His most recent book is THE BLACK MAGIC MURDERS, a fictional true crime novel set in San Francisco, circa 1970.
