Joe Ide is of Japanese American descent and grew up in South Central Los Angeles. Joe’s favorite books were the Conan Doyle stories of Sherlock Holmes. The idea that a person could face the world and vanquish his enemies with just his intelligence fascinated him.
Joe went on to earn a graduate degree and had several careers before writing his debut novel, IQ, inspired by his early experiences and love of Sherlock. Joe lives in Santa Monica, California. (from JoeIde.com)
