Warren Fahy

Warren Fahy (pron.: /feɪ/) is an American author and screenwriter, best known for his work in the science thriller genre. His novel, Fragment, an international best seller, was translated into 18 languages. Fahy lives in San Diego, California and has been married to American model and actress Neith Hunter since 2009.

Warren was born in Hollywood, California, where his passion for writing produced his first novel at age 12 and two more by age 17. He then won consecutive literary awards taking first place in the local public library short story contest and a National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) essay award.

Fahy chose to leave college at Cal State Northridge and instead work various jobs that would enable him to support his craft. Beginning at age 19, he was the manager of a bookstore, a word processor for the Century Plaza Hotel, a statistical analyst at Petersen Publishing Company, and then for ten years until 2000, he held the title of managing editor for several movie databases.

It was during this period that Fahy's article "The ancient history of the mullet" was published in the Beastie Boys Grand Royal Magazine, helping the hip-hop band coin the term "mullet", which now exists in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED).
