Charles E. Gannon

Charles E. Gannon è un autore americano affermato, professore di inglese di ruolo e Senior Specialist Fulbright in Letteratura e Cultura Americana. Ha avuto una carriera accademica di successo, insegnando all'Università di San Bonaventura per molti anni, durante i quali ha ricoperto il ruolo di Professore di Inglese e Direttore del Programma di Laurea Magistrale in Inglese. Nel 2007, Gannon ha deciso di dedicarsi a tempo pieno alla scrittura.

Gannon è noto soprattutto per il suo lavoro nel genere della science fiction e ha ricevuto numerosi riconoscimenti per le sue opere. Ha pubblicato novelle su Analog e la serie War World, e il suo libro di saggistica "Rumors of War and Infernal Machines" ha vinto il premio ALA Outstanding Text Award del 2006. Gannon ha anche lavorato come autore e curatore per GDW, contribuendo al contenuto scientifico e tecnico e alle trame dei premiati giochi "Traveller" e "2300 AD."

Oltre al suo lavoro nel genere della science fiction, Gannon ha lavorato come sceneggiatore e produttore a New York, producendo contenuti per clienti come le Nazioni Unite, l'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità e Il Consiglio del Presidente per la Condizione Fisica. Gannon è stato anche borsista Fulbright in varie università, tra cui l'Università di Liverpool, l'Università Palacky nella Repubblica Ceca e l'Università di Dundee. Ha ricevuto numerose borse di studio Fulbright e sovvenzioni di viaggio dell'ambasciata in vari paesi, tra cui i Paesi Bassi, la Slovacchia, l'Inghilterra e l'Italia.

Il lavoro di Gannon spesso esplora l'intersezione della fiction, della tecnologia e dell'influenza politica. Il suo lavoro precedente include vari prodotti e flash fiction per l'industria dei giochi, e ha pubblicato ampiamente su questi temi. Insieme ad altri 50 scrittori di SF, Gannon è membro di SIGMA, un "think-tank" di SF che consiglia agenzie di intelligence e di difesa. È apparso sul Canale Discovery, NPR, Fox e altre principali emittenti nazionali come esperto di concetti avanzati di difesa/militare/intel.
