Hart Hanson is a novelist and TV writer, best known for creating the Fox Television Networks longest-lived scripted hourlong program “Bones”. He also created “The Finder” and “Backstrom” neither of which lasted as long as Bones to Hart’s shame and chagrin.

Before moving to Los Angeles from his native Canada, Hart created the multiple award-winning Global Television Network program “Traders”. Before “Traders” he wrote and produced, amongst others, several Canadian TV series, including “Beachcombers”, “The Road to Avonlea”, and “North of 60”.

After making the move to Los Angeles, Hart started his American TV career writing and producing TV series “Cupid”, “Snoops”, “Judging Amy” and “Joan of Arcadia” before creating “Bones”.

Hart’s first book “The Driver” — a crime novel set in Los Angeles — was lauded as one of The New York Times’ “Best Crime novels of 2017”.

Hart and his wife, Brigitte, split their time between Venice, CA and San Francisco because his two sons didn’t have the decency to settle in the same city.

Blackstone Publishing will publish Hart’s second novel, “The Seminarian” in May of 2024.
