Life
Brian Herbert is the son of science fiction writer Frank Herbert , who became known as the creator of the Dune universe. He has been married to his wife Jan since 1967 and has three daughters, Julie, Kim and Margaux Beverly.
His father was working on the seventh and final volume of his novel cycle Dune in 1986 when he died of cancer.
