Louis Whitley Strieber [stʟibɚ] (born June 13, 1945) is an American writer best known for his horror novels The Wolfen and The Hunger and for Communion, a non-fiction description of his experiences with non-human entities. Along with co-author Art Bell, he also inspired the blockbuster movie about sudden climate change, The Day After Tomorrow.
Strieber began his career as a novelist with the horror novels The Wolfen (1978) and The Hunger (1981), both of which were later made into movies, followed by the less successful horror novels Black Magic (1982) and The Night Church (1983).
Strieber then turned to speculative fiction. He wrote Warday (1984), a New York Times bestseller about the dangers of limited nuclear war, and Nature's End (1986), a novel about environmental apocalypse, both in collaboration with longtime friend James Kunetka. He is also the author Wolf of Shadows (1985), a young adult novel about nuclear winter.
In 1986, Strieber's fantasy novel Catmagic was published, co-authored with Jonathan Barry, who was billed as an aerospace industry consultant and a practicing witch. In the 1987 paperback edition, Strieber states that Jonathan Barry is fictitious and that he, Strieber, is the sole author of Catmagic. Strieber's personal publishing company, Walker & Collier, is named after two of the characters in Catmagic.
Later, less successful thrillers by Strieber (all now out of print) include Billy (1990), The Wild (1991), Unholy Fire (1992), and The Forbidden Zone (1993).
He later returned to the vampire saga that began with The Hunger, adding The Last Vampire (2001) and Lilith's Dream (2002) to the storyline.
The author's short stories were collected in the 1997 limited edition volume Evenings with Demons. An unlimited edition is planned for 2007.
