Michael E. Rose (born May 18, 1954) is a Canadian author of books which include thriller novels.

Rose was born to an English-speaking family in Lachine, Quebec, an inner suburb of predominantly French-speaking Montreal.

He studied on a scholarship beginning in 1971 at what was then known as Loyola College, a Jesuit post-secondary institution that was eventually merged into Concordia University before Rose graduated.

He has written in media genres including news reporting, political commentary and analysis, as well as feature and travel articles.

He has also trained working journalists in Nigeria, Sierra Leone, South Africa, East Timor, Thailand, Sweden and Papua New Guinea.

That house published his next two thrillers in the Frank Delaney series, The Burma Effect and The Tsunami File.

[2][3][4][5][6] After the closure of McArthur & Company in 2012,[7] the Frank Delaney series was re-issued globally by Momentum Books in Australia,[8] a division of Pan MacMillan.

Rose has also published a children's book, "Kangaroo Christmas",[9] and a non-fiction work about Aboriginal journalism in Australia, "For the Record".

The script was presented in a staged reading format before an audience of 150 people at New Theatre in Sydney, Australia in April 2023.
