Roger Simon

Roger L. Simon is an award-winning novelist, screenwriter, journalist, and media entrepreneur whose career spans more than five decades across literature, film, and cultural commentary. He first gained prominence with his bestselling Moses Wine detective series, beginning with the 1970s breakout hit The Big Fix, which became a cultural touchstone and later a Hollywood film.

A prolific writer, Simon earned an Academy Award nomination for his screenplay work and became a leading voice in political and social journalism. He co-founded PJ Media, one of the earliest and most influential digital platforms in the online commentary landscape, shaping national dialogue for over a decade.

His work has appeared in major publications worldwide, and he is known for his sharp intellect, fearless critique, and ability to fuse narrative craft with cultural insight.

In his 80s, Simon has returned to fiction with EMET, a new series inspired by his deepening religious curiosity and concerns for the growing challenges facing Christians and Jews. Blending espionage, mysticism, and moral inquiry, Simon’s latest work reaffirms his standing as one of America’s most versatile and thought-provoking storytellers.
