Wayne Clark is the author of literary-fiction novel he & She, historical fiction novels Hollywood via Orchard Street, That Woman: Beating the odds in Colonial New York, Vinegar Hill Blues, One Murder Too Many, Busted on Broadway and Artistic License.

Award-winning author Wayne Clark was born in 1946 in Ottawa, Ont., but has called Montreal home since 1968. Woven through that time frame in no particular order have been interludes in Halifax, Toronto, Vancouver, Germany, Holland and Mexico.

By far the biggest slice in a pie chart of his career would be labelled journalism, including newspapers and magazines, as a reporter, editor and freelance writer. The other, smaller slices of the pie would also represent words in one form or another, in advertising as a copywriter and as a freelance translator. However, unquantifiable in a pie chart would be the slivers and shreds of time stolen over the years to write fiction.

He is the author of five novels, all set in New York City.
