Jack Henderson is an American thriller writer. He writes the series of novels featuring hacker John Fagan, aka phr33k, and FBI agent Jeannie Reese.

Biography

[edit]

Henderson was born in Springfield, Missouri on October 3, 1958 and was brought up in Buffalo, Missouri.[1]

Henderson did not complete a university degree, although he did complete two years of further education in Performing Arts before leaving college to work in regional theatre.[1] While finding work in this capacity in New York City, Henderson started writing technical documentation for the medical industry, requiring him to perform a great deal of research into the topics discussed.[1]

Henderson has stated that he put in "nearly a year of research and fact-finding" before starting to write his first novel, Maximum Impact (known as Circumference of Darkness in the US).[1] He has since written a follow-up novel, Seven Seconds, and ghost-wrote the book The Overton Window for political commentator Glenn Beck.[2] The Overton Window contains marked similarities to Circumference of Darkness.[2][3][4]
