Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Warren Fahy (pron.: /feɪ/), is an American author and screenwriter, best known for his work in the science thriller genre. His novel, Fragment, an international best seller, was translated into 18 languages. Fahy lives in San Diego, California and has been married to American model and actress Neith Hunter since 2009.
Warren was born in Hollywood, California, where his passion for writing produced his first novel at age 12 and two more by age 17. He then won consecutive literary awards taking first place in the local public library short story contest and a National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) essay award.
Fahy chose to leave college at Cal State Northridge and instead work various jobs that would enable him to support his craft. Beginning at age 19, he was the manager of a bookstore, a word processor for the Century Plaza Hotel, a statistical analyst at Petersen Publishing Company, and then for ten years until 2000, he held the title of managing editor for several movie databases.
It was during this period that Fahy's article "The ancient history of the mullet" was published in the Beastie Boys Grand Royal Magazine, helping the hip-hop band coin the term "mullet", which now exists in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED).
In Fahy's Fragment, a crew of young scientists from a reality TV show must survive when their vessel lands on an island populated by predatory creatures. During an extensive three-year research period for the novel, and while simultaneously maintaining lead writer positions first for Rockstar Games Red Dead Revolver and then for WowWee Robotics, Warren consulted with scientists from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and worked with a team of concept artists: – Steven Olds, Ron Lemen, Daren Bader – and creative director and designer Michael Limber, who is also Warren's business partner.
Producer Lloyd Levin optioned the screenplay adaptation of Fragment for a major motion picture. The sequel to Fragment, Pandemonium, was released in March 2013.
