Ivo Mosley studied Japanese for a first degree and Musical Theatre for an MA. He has written fiction, plays, and cultural criticism for many publications, both mainstream and fringe.

His most recent book was In The Name Of The People (Imprint Academic, 2013) and his next book will be titled Robbery By Banks.
