Klaus Josef Stimeder (aka JM Stim; March 17, 1975, in Schaerding), is an Austrian author and a journalist who lives in Los Angeles, California. In Germany, Switzerland, and Austria he became known as a war reporter and as the founder and publisher of Datum magazine. In the US and Canada he is mostly known for his 2011 book Here is Berlin. Stimeder grew up in the Upper Austrian village of Obernberg am Inn. During his childhood and teenage years, Stimeder's most significant influence was his uncle Franz Martin who was living in Salzburg. In the seventies and eighties, many Austrian artists and writers gathered in Martin's apartments (e.g. Schloss Freisaal) whose works and lifestyles had a big impact on Stim (i.e., H. C. Artmann, for whose readings Martin had been delivering the musical support, Thomas Bernhard, Peter Handke, and Lucas Suppin). More information...
