Biografie

modificare

Steiger s-a născut ca Eugene E. Olson la 19 februarie 1936[2] la Spitalul Luteran din Fort Dodge, Iowa în timpul unui viscol. A crescut la o fermă din Bode, Iowa.

El a fost luteran până la vârsta de unsprezece ani, atunci când o experiență aproape de moarte i-a schimbat convingerile sale religioase. Părinții săi l-au încurajat să devină profesor.[3] A absolvit Colegiul Luteran din Iowa în 1957 și Universitatea din Iowa în 1963. A predat limba engleză la liceu înainte de a preda literatura și scrierea creativă la fostul său colegiu în perioada 1963 - 1967.[2]

Steiger pretinde că a scris prima sa carte la vârsta de șapte ani.[3] Prima sa carte, Ghosts, Ghouls and Other Peculiar People, a fost publicată în 1965. El a devenit scriitor profesionist în 1967.[2] Este autorul/co-autorul a cca. 170 de cărți, care s-au vândut în cca. 17 milioane de exemplare. De asemenea, a scris biografiile unor actori ca Greta Garbo, Judy Garland sau Rudolph Valentino, aceasta din urmă fiind adaptată într-un film în 1977.[4] Alături de soția sa, Sherry Hansen Steiger, a scris Four-legged Miracles: Heartwarming Tales of Lost Dogs' Journeys Home (cu sensul de Miracole cu patru picioare: Povestiri emoționante ale unor câini pierduți care s-au întors acasă).

Steiger a apărut în emisiuni radiofonice ale Coast to Coast AM[5] sau în cadrul Jeff Rense Program.[4]
