New York City native Marshall Karp is not one of those authors who knew they wanted to write books from a young age. The first few decades of Karp’s professional life were spent climbing the ranks at an advertising agency. But once he reached the top, Karp realized he wanted to do more with his life than participate in the corporate American rat race.
Karp then moved to Los Angeles, where he wrote and produced television comedies for the stars and even wrote a feature film loosely based on his own life. Those years spent in LA largely influenced what came next: Karp’s career as an author. While Karp didn’t get his start as an author until middle age, he went on to write several bestsellers and has even co-authored a series of books with James Patterson.
The influence of Karp’s career trajectory is clear to see in The Rabbit Factory, the first book in his bestselling and critically-acclaimed Lomax and Biggs mystery series. We recently had the chance to speak with Karp ourselves about The Rabbit Factory, his thoughts on making major career changes, and more in a recent interview—continue reading to find out what he had to say!
