06 Who is he? (David Gemmell)

David Gemmell was born in London, England, in the summer of 1948.

Expelled from school at sixteen for organising a gambling syndicate,
he became a labourer by day, and at night his six-foot-four-inch,
230-pound frame allowed him to earn extra money as a bouncer working
nightclubs in Soho.

He has also worked as a freelance journalist with the London Daily
Mail, Daily Mirror, and Daily Express.

His first novel, Legend, was published in 1984 and has remained in
print ever since. He became a full-time writer in 1986.
