Career

Tony Daniel was born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.[2]

Daniel began writing science fiction in 1990. He has authored ten books, numerous short stories and poems, as well as literary criticism, opinion, journalism, and reviews. His work has appeared several times in Gardner Dozois' The Year's Best Science Fiction anthologies.[citation needed] Daniel was a senior editor at Baen Books and Regnery Publishing. He was also senior story editor at scifi.com's Seeing Ear Theater from 2000 to 2002, where he wrote, produced and directed several productions.[citation needed] He was a lecturer in science fiction as literature, screenplays, and graduate writing workshops at the University of Texas at Dallas from 2006 to 2011. [3]

His novels Metaplanetary (2001) and Superluminal (2004) depict a war between two parts of the Solar System.[4] Of Metaplanetary, the Publishers Weekly review stated "Daniel seems to want to create an epic vision of humanity."[5] Kirkus Reviews held a similar view, writing "Vast, intricate, fizzing with wit, and bulging with utterly fascinating ideas."[6]

Daniel is the author of two Star Trek: The Original Series novels, Star Trek: Devil's Bargain and Star Trek: Savage Trade.

Daniel is perhaps best known for his short story "A Dry, Quiet War," which has been multiply reprinted. His short story "Life on the Moon" was a finalist for the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1996 and won the Asimov's Magazine Reader's Choice Award for that year.[citation needed]
