Originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, Caleb Roehrig grew up with a particular interest in ghosts, witches, and all things spooky. A former actor and television producer, he's done a lot of wacky things to earn a paycheck?like partying with a rockstar and getting menaced by a disgruntled ostrich?and sometimes he even writes about them. Creepy Kid is his first book for middle grade readers.
