Jack Hart lives on a small farm in southern Ohio, and
is a professor of English at the University of Rio Grande (which, oddly enough,
is in Ohio). He is a playwright and poet, and the author of three books of
poetry. He edits Ship of Fools magazine, a small, but much-praised poetry
magazine. Mythosphere is the culmination of an interest in science fiction
fantasy that began in childhood with the discovery of a neighbor's
complete, hardbound collection of Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars
series. In the autumn of 1999 he
married his co-author, Catherine Grosvenor in an oak grove in the back pasture
of their farm.
Catherine Hart is an artist and clothing
designer, and the author of a series of dark fairy tales. Her writing is
much influenced by her childhood discovery of the horror stories of H.P.
Lovecraft's Cthulu Mythos. She is also the computer geek of the family,
and aside from her share of the writing, is responsible for getting Mythosphere
on disc, and for designing our personal Mythosphere website.
