Vincent O'Sullivan was born on the 28th November 1868 in New York City. He was initially educated through the New York public school system before finishing his studies in England. As a young man he remained in London and travelled often to Paris.
O’Sullivan lived a very comfortable life with income from the family coffee business. He had no real need to work but decided that a literary lifestyle was for him.
In 1896 he released his first volume of supernatural fiction ‘A Book of Bargains’. Within its pages were classic stories that involved pacts with the Devil, reanimated corpses and psychic vampires.
Over the course of his career, he wrote a mere 10 volumes of short stories, novels, poetry together with some occasional criticism.
In 1909 his brother, who ran the company, entered its resources into some terribly mis-timed trades in coffee futures and ruin for both the company and the family quickly followed.
From now until his death O’Sullivan was destitute, life was exceedingly difficult.
Vincent O’Sullivan died on the 18th July 1940 in Paris. He was 71. He was buried in a pauper’s grave along with the remains of others.
