VJ Books Presents Author Glenn Meade!
Glenn Meade was born in Dublin in l957. After finishing secondary school he had a tough time choosing between studying theology or engineering, but eventually engineering won out and he studied telecommunications. Soon after graduating, he lived and worked in New Hampshire. He worked as a specialist in the field of pilot training, having had a life-long interest in aviation, and has also been a journalist for the Irish Times and the Independent.
While living in New Hampshire, he persistently tried to interview the famously reclusive author of CATCHER IN THE RYE, J.D. Salinger, an effort that only served to vex Salinger, who set his dogs on Meade, who luckily managed to outrun Salinger's hounds and survive.
His first novel, BRANDENBURG, about a neo-Nazi resurgence in present-day Europe, came about when he traveled to Germany to write an article for the Times on the billions in Nazi gold that went missing at the end of the Second World War. Quite by accident, he met an elderly former SS officer who told him a remarkable and highly personal tale about his part in keeping a disturbing war-time secret. That story became the inspiration for BRANDENBURG.
Meade has earned a reputation for meticulously researched stories and has traveled extensively to Russia, the Middle East, and Europe to research his novels.
Meade spends some of his free time in the American south.
