HY CONRAD has made a career out of murder, earning a Scribe Award for best novel and garnering three Edgar nominations from the Mystery Writers of America. Along the way, he developed a horde of popular games and interactive films, hundreds of short stories and a dozen books of solvable mysteries, published in over a dozen languages. Hy is best known for his eight seasons as writer/co-executive producer for the ground-breaking series, Monk. Other shows include White Collar and The Good Cop.

In the world of theatre, his produced works consist of Home Exchange (a mystery), Ta-Dah! (a musical), and Quarantine for Two (a socially-distanced dark comedy about the pandemic).

As a novelist, Hy authored the final four books in the Monk series, the Amy Travel Mysteries and The Fixer’s Daughter, a Barnes &Noble bestseller and the first of the Callie McFee Mysteries.

When he looks up from his keyboard, Hy sees either the hills of Vermont or the palm trees of Key West, depending on the time of year. He also sees Jeff Johnson, his partner of 42 years, now his husband, plus Nelson and Stella, the latest in a dynasty of mini schnauzers.
