Stephen G. Michaud


Stephen G. Michaud is the author or co-author of 18 books, including Conversations With a Killer, a New York Times best-seller; Dark Dreams, an Edgar finalist and The Only Living Witness, which the New York Daily News has called one of the ten best true crime books ever written.


In late January, 2019, Netflix premiered a four- part documentary entitled Conversations With a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes, featuring the audio recordings Michaud and Hugh Aynesworth made of their interviews with Bundy.
