Life and works

Levine attended the University of Manitoba and the University of Toronto; he got a PhD in Canadian history from Toronto in 1985. His graduate thesis on the grain business in Winnipeg was turned into his first book in 1987, at which point he was teaching and freelancing as a journalist. He is an alumnus of Camp Massad of Manitoba.[1][2]

Levine's non-fiction work Fugitives of the Forest was awarded the Yad Vashem Prize in Holocaust History in the 1999 Canadian Jewish Book Awards. His series of Sam Klein Mysteries followed. In late 2004, Levine toured Germany promoting Die Sünden der Suffragetten, the German translation of his mystery Sins of the Suffragette.[3][4] On October 2, 2020, the University of Winnipeg announced that Levine was receiving an honorary doctor of laws at the October 23, 2020 convocation.[5]
