Authors Jon Jefferson and Bill Bass have published a number of fictional murder mystery novels based on the body farm at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville under the pseudonym Jefferson Bass.
Prior to writing books, Jefferson worked as a staff science writer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory; as an educator and administrator at Planned Parenthood of East Tennessee; as a freelance magazine and newspaper journalist; and as a television documentary writer/producer.

He also wrote and directed for the National Geographic Channel a two-part documentary -- Biography of a Corpse and Anatomy of a Corpse -- about the University of Tennessee Anthropological Research Facility, which is also widely known as the Body Farm.
Bass has also described the body farm as "Death's Acre" – the title of the book on his life and career, co-written with journalist Jon Jefferson.
