Marek WaldorfMarek Waldorf is the author of a novel, The Short Fall, and a collection of stories, Widow's Dozen. The Ontolog was begun in 2006 in Brooklyn, NY and completed in 2016 in Astoria, NY, where the author currently lives with Hlen and Luna. Born in Washington DC, Waldorf grew up in various places: Idi Amin's Uganda, coup-wracked Thailand, punk-era England, and apartheid-encircled Lesotho, but primarily Binghamton, NY. He studied Philosophy at Harvard, started a PhD in American Literature at UCLA and left after a year, moving to San Francisco, where he co-starred in Jon Moritsugu's Hippy Porn. Waldorf's grandfather, Darwin Teilhet, wrote more than 25 novels, many with his wife Hildegarde--most popular mysteries of the 1930s and 1940s--including the series, The Adventures of the Brave Baron von Kaz in the Northern States of America (1935-40) and The Fearmakers, a conspiracy thriller, the film of which was directed by Jacques Tourneur.
