Corey Redekop was born in Thompson, Manitoba. He was raised in Thompson, Manitoba. He then left Thompson, Manitoba, to become (in no particular order) an actor, a waiter, a tree planter, a world traveler, a lawyer, a barista, a broadcaster, and a film editor. Then, through mysterious circumstances, he found himself back in Thompson, Manitoba. He currently earns a living as director of the Thompson Public Library in Thompson, Manitoba. Somehow, amidst all this, he published his first novel, the critically acclaimed Shelf Monkey (ECW Press, 2007).
