Michael Benson is one of the most prolific non-fiction authors working in true crime and sports history. Since the late 1980s, he has published over 160 books covering topics from serial killers to baseball dugouts. His true crime catalog includes investigations of real murder cases (A Killer’s Touch, Evil Season), organized crime histories (Carmine the Snake, Lord High Executioner), and examinations of famous criminal cases.
His other major body of work is the Tales from the Team series, which includes nearly 100 books about professional and college sports teams. Each book collects stories, anecdotes, and behind-the-scenes accounts from a specific team, covering everything from the New York Yankees to the Green Bay Packers to college basketball programs.
