Max Brooks Biography

Max Brooks is widely recognized for his expertise in Zombie preparedness. The contemporary world, fraught with challenges, has seen a notable increase in zombie incidents. The Office of Homeland Security regards Brooks as the leading authority on combating the relentless, flesh-eating zombie hordes that are prevalent globally.

Brooks' notable work includes "The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks" (2009), a graphic novel that chronicles major zombie attacks throughout history. This work demonstrates how various cultures have faced and overcome the zombie menace. His initial book, "The Zombie Survival Guide," offers essential strategies for surviving zombie encounters and has propelled him to international travel in his research efforts. Another critical acclaim in his portfolio, "World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War" (2007), explores the global fight against zombies through personal narratives, which has been well-received by critics and readers alike.

The influence of his parents, Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft, has been significant in his commitment to educating the public about zombie survival. Currently, Brooks is engaged in spreading awareness and preparedness strategies. He has mentioned that his interest in zombies is not metaphorical but a genuine concern rooted in fear. Born in New York City in 1972, Brooks was deeply impacted by a childhood encounter with the living dead, an experience he seldom discusses. His dedication has also led him to become a prominent practitioner of Mkunga-Lalem, an Afro-Caribbean martial art effective against ghouls.

Brooks' career has also included time at the B.B.C. in Great Britain and East Africa, which preceded his authorship of "The Zombie Survival Guide." Formerly a writer for "Saturday Night Live," he resides in New York City with his wife, Michelle, and their miniature dachshund, Maizey.
