Collins Hemingway

Whether his subject is literature, history, or science, Collins Hemingway has a passion for the art of creative investigation. For him, the most compelling fiction deeply explores the heart and soul of its characters, while also engaging them in the complex and often dangerous world in which they have a stake. He wants to explore all that goes into people’s lives and everything that makes them complete though fallible human beings. His fiction is shaped by the language of the heart and an abiding regard for courage in the face of adversity.

In addition to fiction, Hemingway is a highly regarded author of nonfiction books, tackling challenging subjects with clarity and insight—writing for the nontechnical but intelligent reader. He has worked alongside some of the world’s thought leaders on topics as diverse as corporate culture and ethics; the Internet and mobile technology; the ins and outs of the retail trade; and the cognitive potential of the brain. He is best known for the #1 best-selling book on business and technology, "Business @ the Speed of Thought," which he coauthored with Bill Gates.

Hemingway is an award-winning writer of shorter nonfiction on topics as diverse as computer technology, medicine, and aviation.
