Mike Brogan
Mike Brogan writes about a world he lived - the increasingly competitive world of global business. Starting as an advertising copywriter at a major U.S. ad agency, he was soon promoted to Creative Director of General Motors and other blue chip multi-national advertising in London, England and on the European continent. His radio and television commercials won accolades in the UK and Europe and some were honored at the prestigious Cannes Advertising Festival.

Back in the USA, Brogan continued writing award-winning advertising. Some commercials, like Baseball, Hotdogs, Apple Pie and Chevrolet, have become part of Americana.

But all this time Brogan was writing what he really loved: fiction. He wrote early in the morning, during lunch, at night - wherever he could grab a few minutes. He also attended novel writing seminars, like the Iowa Writers Conference and the Maui Writers Conference.

And it all paid off. His first thriller, Business to Kill For, recently won a Writer's Digest award. WD called it, " … the equal of any thriller read in recent years."

But his years working in Europe gave him more than a unique perspective on global competitiveness. It gave him a real and personal sense of terrorism. The kind that hit close to home … like the night a bomb exploded just sixty feet from his family. That experience and similar ones led to his suspense thriller, Dead Air, in which a brilliant scientist has singled out many men, women and children to die in ten U.S. cities in just days.

This international experience also led to his newest suspense thriller, Madison's Avenue. In this story, a young woman inherits a large advertising agency after her father dies mysteriously. What she doesn't realize is that she's also inherited his enemies.

Brogan currently lives in southeastern Michigan, where he's completing his next novel.
