Biography

Peter Ahlstrom was born and raised in the Dayton, Ohio area and now lives in Los Angeles. He graduated from Brigham Young University with a B.A. in Linguistics, minoring in English and astronomy.

Peter has been involved in science fiction and fantasy since his teens in the late Eighties, joining a writing group that included author Diann Thornley. He became interested in editing in college, where he was editor of BYU's science fiction/fantasy magazine The Leading Edge.

His path, he says, led him to manga and anime, where he's been everything from fan to editor and judge of the Rising Stars of Manga competition. Currently an editor for TOKYOPOP, he handles English editions of graphic novels from Japan, Korea, and Germany. Prominent series in his care have been .hack//G.U.+ and .hack//XXXX, Rave Master, Strawberry Marshmallow, Ai Yori Aoshi, and CLAMP no Kiseki. His favorite is Dazzle, known as Hatenkou Yugi in Japan, and one of his newest series is J-Pop Idol. He's also written English adaptations for GetBackers, DearS, Jing: King of Bandits, and the last two .hack//Another Birth novels.
