Steve Rasnic Tem est un auteur américain primé, reconnu pour ses contributions prolifiques à la fantasy, à l'horreur, à la science-fiction et à la fiction régionale appalachienne. Avec une carrière s'étendant sur plus de quatre décennies, il a publié plus de 450 nouvelles et de nombreux romans, dont "Deadfall Hotel", "Blood Kin" et "UBO". Ses œuvres ont obtenu une reconnaissance critique, remportant des prix tels que le Bram Stoker, l'International Horror Guild, le British Fantasy et le World Fantasy Award. L'écriture de Tem mêle souvent une prose sombre et imaginative à des thèmes profondément humains, ce qui lui vaut des éloges pour sa qualité envoûtante et sa capacité à redéfinir les genres.
Né dans le comté de Lee, en Virginie, Tem puise son inspiration dans ses racines appalachiennes, imprégnant son écriture d'influences gothiques sudistes et régionales. Ses collaborations avec sa défunte épouse, Melanie Tem, incluent la novella célébrée "The Man On The Ceiling", qui a été adaptée en roman et a remporté plusieurs prix. Au-delà de la fiction, Tem a coécrit "Yours to Tell: Dialogues on the Art & Practice of Fiction", un manuel d'écriture. Sa bibliographie diversifiée comprend des recueils tels que "City Fishing", "Celestial Inventories" et "Figures Unseen: Selected Stories", démontrant sa polyvalence à travers les genres. Résident de longue date du Colorado, Tem est diplômé en éducation anglaise et en création littéraire, ce qui enrichit encore son art littéraire.
