At first, Joel Canfield made television his career and writing his hobby. About ten years ago, however, those roles reversed and he is now a professional ghostwriter, novelist and screenwriter. Originally from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, Canfield is a graduate of Northwestern University and has lived in Detroit, Michigan, Southern California; Miami, Florida; and Auckland, New Zealand. He now resides on Roosevelt Island in New York City with his writer wife Lisa and dog Betsy. Canfield''s books include Dark Sky and Blue Fire (the first two books in the Max Bowman series); What''s Driving You???: How I Overcame Abuse and Learned to Lead in the NBA (co-authored with Keyon Dooling and Lisa Canfield); Pill Mill: My Years of Money, Madness, Sex and Drugs (co-authored with Christian Valdes and Lisa Canfield); 226: How I Became the First Blind Person to Kayak the Grand Canyon (co-authored with Lonnie Bedwell); and StorySelling and Mission-Driven Business (both co-authored with Nick Nanton and J.W. Dicks).
