Michael Connelly






 Michael Connelly and Kerri Miller on the stage at the Fitzgerald Theatre

Another hit interview with Talking Volumes!  Connelly spent the evening discussing his craft and his development as a writer.  The author of 26 novels he had plenty to say,  and it was all interesting!

  6. I got to meet Michael Connelly and hear him talk at the LAPD Heritage museum in LA...the audience was primarily LAPD personnel...he told the audience that our audience intimidated him more than any other he'd spoken to...due to the fact that he bases his stories in LA...he takes some literary license in describing some aspects of the LAPD system, but for the most part he's right on!!! He apologized to the audience for always having conflict between the upper administration and his characters...he said that one of the primary plot scenarios is conflict...especially between upper management and the regular guy. He was fascinating and is one of the few mystery/crime authors that TheChief enjoys reading!!!

  8. I love his books and have read them all except the last one. Funny that he doesn't fit my mental image of him - that's always so intriguing.
