Kevin Dilmore has partnered with author and best pal Dayton Ward on fiction, pop-culture essays and magazine journalism for 25 years. Their shared work focuses chiefly on the Star Trek universe and ranges from articles in the much-missed Star Trek Communicator magazine and other fan publications to comic books, short stories and novels that include “Purgatory’s Key” published by Pocket Books to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the original Star Trek series.

Their most recent published works include a pair of books featuring the iconic super heroes of Marvel Comics, Iron Man: Tony Stark Declassified and Steve Rogers: Captain America Declassified, both published by BenBella Books, as well as work supporting the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game. As a senior editor for Hallmark Cards, Kevin supports Hallmark’s gifts and ornaments teams. He helps create dozens of pop-culture items each year including books, greeting cards, ornaments and gifts featuring icons and audio from favorite comics, movies and TV shows as well as Hallmark-owned properties such Rainbow Brite, Young Santa, and Cosmic Ray. A contributor to publications including The Village Voice, Amazing Stories, and Famous Monsters of Filmland, Kevin lives in Kansas City, Missouri.
