This is a quick bio, most of the information was gathered from here.
Stephen Edwin King was born in Portland, Maine in 1947. He is the second son of Donald and Nellie Ruth Pillsbury King.
Stephen made his first professional short story sale, called "The Glass Floor", to Startling Mystery Stories in 1967. Throughout the early years of his marriage (to Tabitha Spruce), he continued to sell stories to men's magazines. Many of these were later gathered into the Night Shift collection or appeared in other anthologies.
In the spring of 1973,Doubleday & Co. accepted the novel Carrie for publication.
(The rest is history or so they say.)
The Kings have three children: Naomi Rachel, Joe Hill and Owen Phillip, and three grandchildren.
