Daniel Lovat Clark is a professional geek who writes and designs games for a living in the wilds of New England.

He was born in Boston and grew up splitting his time between the beaches and highlands of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia and the green (or snow-covered, depending) mountains of Vermont. He inherited a love of fantasy, science fiction, and science fact from his father and a love of nature from his mother and a love of art and music from both. And books. Books most of all.

Daniel spent nearly twenty years at Fantasy Flight Games. His professional highlights include co-creating the Android setting, design credit for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Third Edition and Descent: Journeys in the Dark Second Edition, and designing the beginner game experiences for FFG's line of Star Wars RPGs.

He lives in central Massachusetts with his wife, child, and the legal maximum number of animals.
