María Teresa Colominas
Escritora española, María Teresa Colominas es conocida principalmente por su novela Donde los ángeles no duermen.
Colominas fue la primera de dos hermanos, de una familia trabajadora. Ya de pequeña le apasionaba la escritura, y comenzó con pequeños relatos que leía a su hermano. A los 30 años hace su primer viaje a Estados Unidos, donde conoce a un hombre que le cuenta una historia propia, que más tarde inspiraría su novela más exitosa Donde los ángeles no duermen.
Tras una controversia con la familia de los personajes de su novela, finalmente logra publicarla, primero en Estados Unidos, después en España, y por último en latino-américa, donde se convierte en un auténtico Best-seller, con más de 200.000 ejemplares vendidos.

James Myers Thompson was a United States writer of novels, short stories and screenplays, largely in the hardboiled style of crime fiction.
Thompson wrote more than thirty novels, the majority of which were original paperback publications by pulp fiction houses, from the late-1940s through mid-1950s. Despite some positive critical notice, notably by Anthony Boucher in the New York Times, he was little-recognized in his lifetime. Only after death did Thompson's literary stature grow, when in the late 1980s, several novels were re-published in the Black Lizard series of re-discovered crime fiction.

Garro's writing, despite being mostly fictional prose, borrowed heavily from poetry and its literary elements. Author and biographer Patricia Rosas Lopategui has described Garro's style as "an attempt to rescue the use of everyday language in the fo
