A native-born Floridian, Hiaasen has covered everything from polluted rivers and animal welfare to the Trayvon Martin case and been published in Sports Illustrated, Playboy, Esquire, and more. He`s published 11 books, many turned into films, including Strip Tease with Demi Moore and the new Apple TV+ series Bad Monkey with Vince Vaughn. Most of his novels are set in his home state, but he has also written a slew of non-fiction and books for young readers. Described as "savagely funny," Hiaasen was dubbed “America’s finest satirical novelist" by The London Observer. At the same time, he has received numerous honors for his incisive journalism and commentary, including three Pulitzer Prize nominations, the Damon Runyon Award from the Denver Press Club and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Society of Newspaper Columnists. We are so excited to have Hiaasen join us for #SVWC2025 July 19-21! His latest novel, Fever Beach, just hit stands May 13—grab a copy and read ahead! @carl_hiaasen
