ⓘ About Les Edgerton

Les Edgerton is an award-winning and bestselling American author of screenplays, novels, nonfiction books, and short stories. The subjects that he writes on are just as varied as the genres as he has written black comedy, sports novels, thrillers, literary fiction and books on the craft of writing. Edgerton was born in Odessa, Texas but was brought up in South Bend, Indiana and Freeport, Texas. He had quite the checkered life as he joined the US Navy as a teenager where he served for four years and went to prison for two years. It was after he left the military that he turned to crime and was later convicted for second-degree burglary and sentenced to between two to five in Pendleton Reformatory.
