Biography
Alvaro Zinos-Amaro was born in Spain, to an American father and a Spanish mother. He grew up in Europe, mostly, and despite the advice of his betters earned a BS in Theoretical Physics at the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid (UAM) in 2003, after which he relocated to the U.S.
He made his first short fiction sale in 2008 and was soon a Finalist of the Writers of the Future contest. Alvaro is the co-author, with Robert Silverberg, of When The Blue Shift Comes, which received a starred review from Library Journal, and the non-fiction volume Traveler of Worlds: Conversations with Robert Silverberg.
Alvaro's short fiction and Rhysling-nominated poetry have appeared in Analog, Nature, Galaxy's Edge, Apex, The Journal of Unlikely Entomology, Buzzy Magazine, Neon and various anthologies, such as Dark Expanse: Surviving the Collapse and the forthcoming The Mammoth Book of Professor Moriarty Adventures.
Alvaro has also published reviews and critical essays in The Los Angeles Review of Books, Strange Horizons, The New York Review of Science Fiction, and other venues. Alvaro currently conducts interviews for Clarkesworld, has a science fiction book review column at Intergalactic Medicine Show, and edits the roundtable blog for Locus.
He and his co-conspirator and sometimes editor (read, girlfriend) currently reside in sunny Irvine, California.
