Nelson Richard DeMille es un novelista estadounidense consagrado, nacido en Jamaica, Queens, Nueva York, el 23 de agosto de 1943. Es hijo de Huron DeMille, un constructor, y su esposa Antonia Panzera. La familia de DeMille se mudó a Long Island cuando era niño, donde asistió a la escuela secundaria Elmont Memorial y desarrolló un gusto por el fútbol y las carreras de atletismo.
Después de graduarse de la escuela secundaria, DeMille pasó tres años en la Universidad de Hofstra antes de unirse al Ejército. Asistió a la Escuela de Candidatos a Oficiales y fue comisionado como Teniente en el Ejército de los Estados Unidos, prestando servicio de 1966 a 1969. DeMille vio acción en Vietnam como líder de pelotón de infantería con la Primera División de Caballería y fue galardonado con la Medalla Aire, la Estrella de Bronce y la Cruz de Valor de Vietnam. Después de su baja, regresó a la Universidad de Hofstra y recibió su licenciatura en Ciencia Política y Historia. Tiene tres hijos y actualmente reside en Long Island.
DeMille es mejor conocido por sus thrillers y ficción criminal, con obras notables que incluyen "La hija del general", "La Costa de Oro" y la serie John Corey. Aunque principalmente escribe en este género, también ha incursionado en la no ficción utilizando seudónimos. Muchas de sus obras se establecen en Long Island, donde creció. Su primera novela importante, "Junto a los ríos de Babilonia", fue publicada en 1978 y aún está en impresión hoy, al igual que todas sus obras subsiguientes.
DeMille es miembro de varias organizaciones profesionales, incluyendo American Mensa, The Authors Guild y International Thriller Writers. Ha desempeñado el cargo de presidente anterior de la Mystery Writers of America y es juez del Club del Libro del Mes. Ha recibido tres doctorados honorarios de la Universidad de Hofstra, la Universidad de Long Island y el Colegio Dowling. En 2015, DeMille fue elegido ThrillerMaster del Año por International Thriller Writers. También ha contribuido con historias cortas a antologías y reseñas de libros y artículos a revistas y periódicos.
