A graduate of Vancouver College, Canadian author Anton Von Stefan spent his childhood growing up in Vancouver and Richmond, British Columbia. After working for forty-two years at the Pacific Grain Terminal on Vancouver’s waterfront, the author became a full-time writer. In his spare time, he briefly worked for the Herald and Times, a West Side newspaper and the City Drive News, an East End newspaper which unfortunately folded in late 2002.
For ten years, he organized murder mystery weekends at Mayne Island’s Springwater Lodge for Vancouver’s Pacific Ski Club. At precisely midnight on the first night the author would read one of his completed ghost stories. Since then, he has held author’s readings at Cole’s Books in Langford, Western Sky Books in Port Coquitlam and at his home in Delta, British Columbia, in North Sydney on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia; and twice in the author’s birth city of Vienna at Shakespeare and Company.
The author is currently in negotiations to bring A Very Strange Christmas! to the world stage and is working on his third book, The Curse of Count Louie Vincenti. You can read about the author and his work at: www.antonvonstefan.com
