David Koepp is a celebrated American screenwriter who's written more than two dozen feature films. He's written with success in a wide variety of genres, including the first two Jurassic Park films, Death Becomes Her, Carlito's Way, The Paper, Mission: Impossible, Spider-Man, Panic Room War of the Worlds, Angels and Demons, and Inferno. Some of the films he's both written and directed are Stir of Echoes, Secret Window, Ghost Town, and Premium Rush. Cold Storage is his first novel. Koepp grew up in the small town of Pewaukee, Wisconsin. He went to a variety of colleges over a leisurely-paced academic career, and recounts his junior year as being "three of the happiest years of my life." He cites the University of Wisconsin at Madison and the film school at UCLA as particular highlights. He credits much of his success as a writer to the Sisters of the Third Order of Saint Francis at Saint Anthony's Church and School, because they told him early on his handwriting was so awful he'd better learn to type immediately. So he did.
