Renaissance Man Mark Ohlshaker steps into the Interrogation Room to clear up a few things about his work. Mark is an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker, acclaimed novelist, and NYT bestseller who began his career in journalism. He’s since gained tremendous expertise in law enforcement, criminal justice, public health, disease prevention, intelligence, biodefense, and pandemic planning. He consults to the US DOJ Office for Victims of Crime and, of particular interest to the WOTB audience, Mark is also a longtime coauthor with retired FBI Special Agent and Criminal Profiler John Douglas, who founded the field of behavior analysis. Their joint work began with the bestselling nonfiction MINDHUNTER, and the duo has since sold millions of copies across the globe and in numerous languages. Their latest release, THE KILLER ACROSS THE TABLE, published in May to tremendous and immediate success, and a second season of MINDHUNTER on Netflix launches August 16. In this episode, Mark and Writers On The Beat host Gavin Reese discuss serial killers, predatory and deviant criminal behavior, survivor's guilt, and the Parents of Murdered Children organization. We also hit on baseball and the Washington Senators, just to lighten the mood a bit.
