Keith Hartman
Keith Hartman (born 1966) is an American writer of speculative fiction and a self-described "struggling film-maker". He has also written non-fiction books on gay and lesbian issues. He has been nominated a number of times for the Gaylactic Spectrum Awards and Lambda Literary Award for LGBT literature. Biography. Hartman was born in Huntsville, Alabama. He graduated from Princeton University, then went on to study at the London School of Economics, then started a PhD in Finance at Duke University. Sometime around his third year of the finance program, he decided to change careers and become  a writer. "You Should Meet My Son!", Hartman's first feature film, appeared at LGBT film festivals in 2011 and is slated for DVD release later in the year. Reception. F&SF reviewer Charles de Lint reported that ""The Gumshoe, the Witch, and the Virtual Corpse" is, like its title, a somewhat busy book, but there's enough payoff in characterization, story and ideas to make the trip through its pages a real pleasure."
