Person
Born in Blue Island, Illinois, Del Staecker grew up in two very different worlds: The surreal artist's community of Chicago's Old Town (where the likes of Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and Bob Dylan hung out at his Uncle Erling's exotic bird shop), and the small town normalcy of Boy Scouts, Little League baseball, and working on his relatives' farms. Currently, this Life Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and Executive Committee member of the International Association of Crime Writers lives in his Pennsylvania home, which is shared by his wife, the stories that must be told, and the colorful characters in his head.
