Overview: Terry Ballantine Bisson was born on February 12, 1942 in Madisonville, Kentucky, and was raised in Owensboro.
Bisson attended Grinnell College in Iowa and the University of Louisville.
After a brief time in Louisville, he moved to New York City, New York, where he lived on and off for some thirty years, with sojourns in the hippie communes of the Southwest and South. He worked as an auto mechanic and as a magazine and book editor.
Bisson published his first novel Wyrldmaker: A Heroic Romance, in 1981; and his first work of short fiction, “Over Flat Mountain” for the June 1990 issue of Omni.
In the 1960s, early in his career, Bisson collaborated on several comic book stories with Clark Dimond, and he edited Major Publications’ black-and-white horror-comics magazine Web of Horror, but left before the fourth issue. In 1996, he wrote two three-part comic book adaptations of Nine Princes in Amber and The Guns of Avalon, the first two books in Roger Zelazny’s Amber series. In 1997, after Walter M. Miller, Jr.‘s death in 1996, Bisson completed Miller’s unfinished Saint Leibowitz and the Wild Horse Woman, the sequel to Miller’s classic 1960 novel A Canticle for Leibowitz.
Bisson had three children, Nathaniel, Peter and Zoe by his first marriage to Deirdre Holst; and two stepchildren, Kristen and Gabriel and a daughter Welcome, with Judy Jensen, his wife and companion of 50 years.
Terry Bisson died January 10, 2024 in Berkeley, California.
