Nigel Cawthorne

    27 maart 1951

    Deze Anglo-Amerikaanse auteur staat bekend om zijn uitgebreide oeuvre in zowel fictie als non-fictie. Zijn schrijfwerk duikt vaak in de populaire geschiedenis, gepresenteerd als beknopte compilaties zonder formele academische citaties. Hij beschrijft zijn creatieve omgeving zelf als een "boekenschrijffabriek", waar veel van zijn werken voortkwamen uit opdrachten. Een van zijn meest opmerkelijke bijdragen, een controversiële autobiografie van een muzikant, leidde na de publicatie tot jarenlange juridische gevechten.
