This is an engaging collection of mixed media interviews with one of the most popular and successful authors ever. "Conversations with Michael Crichton" brings together decades of interviews and profiles with one of the world's most successful authors. Michael Crichton (1942-2008) had many careers - doctor, novelist, film director, screenwriter - but was best known to millions of readers as 'Father of the techno-thriller'. His novels have sold more than 150 million copies, been translated into 36 languages, and made into thirteen films. He remains the only writer to have had simultaneously the number-one book, the number-one movie, and the number-one television show. While still a student at Harvard Medical School, Crichton's first novel, "The Andromeda Strain", became a bestseller. He left medicine and moved to Los Angeles, intent on pursuing dual careers as a writer and filmmaker. His writings had an unmatched prescience, anticipating public interest about emerging technology and controversial topics. His suspenseful plotting and technical detail were evident in subsequent novels such as Jurassic Park, Congo, Sphere, Disclosure, State of Fear, Next, and posthumously Pirate Latitudes.
