Here are the answers: 1. David Simon started his post-Sun career with Homicide. 2. Michael Sragow (pictured here) recently won the National Award for Arts Writing for a biography about Victor Fleming. 3. Many of Laura Lippman’s mysteries incorporate Baltimore landmarks. 4. Tom Horton and David Harp feature the Eastern Shore, most recently in The Nanticoke. 5. Ariel Sabar won a National Book Critics Circle award for My Father’s Paradise. 6. Dan Fesperman’s thrillers take place in war-torn areas. 7. H.L. Mencken was one of the nation’s greatest social critics. 8. John Eisenberg has examined sports from football to horse racing. 9. C. Fraser Smith has written about Maryland’s political history, most recently in Here Lies Jim Crow. 10. Stephen Hunters’s thrillers overflow with machismo; Point of Impact was made into the movie Shooter.
