James W. Huston (born 1953) is an American author and lawyer who grew up in West Lafayette, Indiana and attended the University of South Carolina. He majored in History with a minor in Englich. He later attended the University of Warwick in England to study English Reformation history and English literature.
After college he received his Navy wings as a Naval Flight Officer and was assigned to VF-84, the Jolly Rogers on the USS Nimitz. With others in VF-84, he participated in making the movie, The Final Countdown, including flying in numerous scenes and personally filming and directing others. While in the Jolly Rogers he was selected to attend TOPGUN.
In 1981, Huston resigned from active duty in order to attend law school at the University of Virginia. After graduating in 1984, he moved to California to join San Diego-based law firm Gray Cary Ames & Frye, and began flying in the Navy Reserves out of NAS Miramar. After a few years, he transferred into the Naval Intelligence Reserves, where he remained until retiring as a Commander in 1997. On September 2, 2010, Huston was named one of the top ten product liability litigators in the country by the legal newswire Law 360.
Huston started writing by trying editorials for the San Diego Union-Tribune, writing on current affairs. After many editorials, he decided to try fiction. Like many aspiring writers, neither his first novel nor his second were accepted for publication. But his third was different.
Huston is the father of five. He and his wife live in San Diego, California.
