David B. Silva (1950-2013) lived in North Las Vegas where he liked to keep a low
profile and tended to prefer the movie theaters and bookstores to
casinos. While he had a number of novels published, he also had over 100 short stories reach publication.
His short fiction appeared in
"The Year's Best Horror," "The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror," and "The Best American Mystery Stories." In 1991, he won a Bram Stoker Award for his short story, "The Calling." His first collection, "Through
Shattered Glass" was published in 2001.
