전기 및 작가의 여정
Michael Crichton was born in Chicago in 1942 and raised on Long Island, where an early interest in books, science, and storytelling took shape alongside a strong academic record. He studied at Harvard, first as an undergraduate and then at Harvard Medical School, an education that gave him a lasting familiarity with laboratory culture, institutional power, and the language of scientific authority. Even before medicine, writing was already central to his life. He published fiction under pseudonyms while still in training, testing genres and narrative machinery long before he became a household name. The decisive turning point came when he recognized that his real subject was not medicine itself, but the collision between advanced knowledge and ordinary human fallibility.
