Before publishing critically acclaimed works of fiction, award-winning and Amazon Bestselling author Steven Paul Leiva spent over twenty years as a writer and producer in the entertainment industry. He worked with such talent as Academy Award-winning producer Richard Zanuck, director Ivan Reitman, literary legend and screenwriter Ray Bradbury, Star Wars producer Gary Kurtz, Looney Tunes legend Chuck Jones, and Animation Feature Academy Award-winning director Brad Bird. He even lent his voice to the Academy Award shortlisted (placing in the top ten) animated short, "The Indescribable Nth." Leiva produced the animation for the original Space Jam, starring the very tall Michael Jordan and the relatively short Bugs Bunny. For this production, Leiva assembled an ad hoc animation studio for Warner Bros and executive producer Ivan Reitman in three days over the phone. During this time, he wrote novels and a play, Made on the Moon, which premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, receiving a four-star review from The Scotsman. After Space Jam, Leiva decided to concentrate on writing novels. Since 2003, he has published twelve novels, a novella, and a book of essays. His work has been praised by literary great Ray Bradbury, Oscar-winning film producer Richard Zanuck, New York Times bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize finalist Diane Ackerman, New York Times Bestselling Author Jonathan Maberry, comedy great Phil Proctor of The Firesign Theater, USA Today Bestselling Author Jean Rabe, Star Trek: Enterprise actor John Billingsley, Australian philosopher and literary critic Russell Blackford, and British physicist and author Stephen Webb. He has received the Scribe Award from the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers.
