Steve Jones

Steve Jones is the co-author of Smile Now, Cry Later: Guns, Gangs, and Tattoos-My Life in Black and Gray. (See web links for more details).

Steve grew up on the wind-swept island of Anglesey, North Wales and graduated, in Chemistry, at North London University. His first foray into writing was as a contributor to the Hamburg-based digital design magazine, 'Page.' In the mid-90s he published his first book, a guide to troubleshooting the Apple Macintosh (International Thomson Publishing).

His first play, Cracked Eggs was staged at the Finborough Theatre in Earls Court, London. He later co-produced Cracked Eggs as a short film featuring Jared Harris (King George VI in 'The Crown'), which screened at the Austin, Boston Underground, LA Shorts, and London Independent film festivals. His subsequent plays Baloopa’s Journey and Hero & Zero were awarded arts council grants in England, Austria, and Lithuania. Steve is currently working on a novel set in Liverpool, London and Wales.
