Jarvis, Stephen

Stephen Jarvis was born in Essex, England. Following graduate studies at Oxford University, he quickly tired of his office job and began doing unusual things every weekend and writing about them for "The" "Daily Telegraph". These activities included learning the flying trapeze, walking on red-hot coals, getting hypnotized to revisit past lives, and entering the British Snuff-Taking Championship. "Death and Mr. Pickwick" is his first novel. He lives in Berkshire, England.
