STEVE BRADSHAW
about the author
Steve Bradshaw received his BA from the University of Texas and trained at the Institute of Forensic Science in Dallas. As Field Agent (Forensic Investigator) for the Medical Examiner, he investigated 3,000+ unexplained, traumatic deaths moments after the tragic event or gruesome discovery. Steve led field investigations and attended autopsies (inquests) where he consulted with law enforcement, physicians, witnesses, suspects, and the Forensic Pathologists who determine the ultimate cause and manner of death (homicide, suicide, accident, natural, undetermined, unclassified).
Steve's career interests moved to FORTUNE 500 biomedical companies where he served in corporate leadership roles for over forty years and participated in the development/commercialization of a wide range of world-changing medical technology breakthroughs. As an entrepreneur Steve served as founder-president/CEO of an innovative orthopedic implant company where he raised $25 million and led in the creation of a new class of orthopedic implants. The game changing early-intervention, minimally-invasive, pliable-structured implants solutions will one day supplant late-stage, major-surgery, metal implants that currently present a formidable competitive barrier.
Steve opened a new chapter and pursued a lifelong interest to write novels. Today his unique brand of forensic mystery/thrillers are available worldwide in all formats including softcover, eBook, and audiobook where books are sold. Steve's writing success is attributed to his unique ability to draw upon his first-hand experience in the chilling field of forensic homicide investigation, the fascinating world of innovative game-changing biotechnology, and a seat at the table in corporate boardrooms where real power and great wealth collide with the often financially limited visionaries of the world.
"I do not tell stories. I take my audience with me into the unedited worlds of intrigue and suspense. I want them to go on a journey they normally would not take. I will talk them into it and they won't regret it. I pull from my real world and allow my characters to run the show; they have the ability to write a much better book than me. I simply listen to them..."
To date Steve has produced ten novels, twenty short stories, seven audiobooks, and his first screenplay, TERMINAL BREACH. Steve seeks an agent/partner in taking his creations to the screens (the cinema or network series/movies).
my greatest compliment. . .
"... is when I am told one of my 100,000-word novels was read in three sittings. My next greatest compliment is when someone tells me they read one of my books three times! I strive to create a reading experience that is riveting and worthwhile."
forensics changes everything. . .
"The infusion of scientific method into our legal system is one of the most defining moments in the advancement of civilization. When determining innocence or guilt, moving from the subjective to the objective matters."
monsters are real. . .
"After investigating hundreds of homicides, I know real monsters exist. The first hurdle one must learn to accept is they are out there. Only then do you have a chance to find them and remove them from society."
amazing technology is all around us. . .
"Everything I write about I have thoroughly researched. If it is in my book, it exists somewhere right now or is a well-kept secret and very close. The world we live in is changing exponentially."
