Saylor, Steven W.

Steven Saylor has had a lifelong fascination with ancient Rome, from the drive-in movies of his boyhood ("Cleopatra, Spartacus, Ben Hur"), to his degree in history from the University of Texas, and through his appearances on the History Channel as an expert on Roman politics and life. He is the author of the Roma Sub Rosa series as well as "A Twist at the End," a historical novel set in 19th century Texas. He divides his time between Berkeley, California and Austin, Texas.
