Stephen Booth wurde in Burnley geboren, wuchs allerdings in Blackpool auf und besuchte dort die Arnold School. Bereits dort begann er im Rahmen der Schülerzeitung seine journalistische Tätigkeit und schrieb im Alter von zwölf seine erste Kurzgeschichte. Im Anschluss studierte er an der Birmingham City University, um Lehrer zu werden, jedoch beendete er diese Laufbahn bereits nach dem ersten Referendariat. 1974 begann er mit ersten journalistischen Tätigkeiten für mehrere Lokalzeitungen, wobei er sich insbesondere auf Berichte von Rugby-Union-Spielen spezialisierte. Es folgten Engagements beim Daily Express und beim The Guardian, wobei Booth sich verstärkt auf eine Freier Mitarbeiter Karriere konzentrierte. Diese gestaltete sich sehr facettenreich, von Artikeln und Fotografien für Fachmagazine bis hin zu einer von der im Radio ausgestrahlten Kurzgeschichte. Nachdem er 1999 für den Dundee Book Prize nominiert war und den mit 5.000 Pfund Sterling dotierten Lichfield Prize gewann, unterschrieb er einen Vertrag beim Verlag Harper Collins und veröffentlichte 2000 mit “Black Dog” sein erstes Werk. Fortan widmete er sich ausschließlich der Belletristik und beendete seine Karriere als freischaffender Journalist im Jahre 2001.
