János Háy

Háy János (író, költő) 1960. április elsején született Vámosmikolán. Orosz-történelem szakot végzett Szegeden, esztétikát az ELTE-n. 1989-től 2004-ig kiadói szerkesztőként dolgozott (Holnap, Pesti Szalon, Palatinus). Régésznek készült, de első ásatása során véletlenül feltárta kedvenc kutyájának maradványait. Ezt követően figyelme egyre inkább a rock-zenére irányult. 1982-ben azonban egy kudarcba fulladt zenekar alapítási kísérlet után felhagy a zenével. Ezidőtől publikál irodalmi műveket. Versek, novellák és regények mellett számos rajza is megjelent. Budapesten él. Van gyermeke (kettő), felesége (egy). Olyan, mint mindenki.
