About the author:

Born in northeastern Ohio, Tom grew up tossing newspapers, mowing the city cemetery and camping with his family in a tent trailer. Tooting a sax, banging a bass drum and running student council scared the principal enough to allow Tom to graduate from high school. He then migrated to Columbus to attend The Ohio State University where he ran student government while completing his B.S. in Industrial and Systems Engineering.

Skiing, open spaces and a high tech manufacturer brought him to Colorado. He met his wife there, which changed his passion from flying airplanes to tent camping, buying homes and raising their daughter while completing his MBA from Colorado State. But he always retained his love for history and researching what happened way back when. Thirty some odd years later, he gave up the corporate grind to spend more time with his wife, daughter, son in-law and two grandkids and now travels in their motorhome while putting out the occasional history book.

His latest book is “INFERNO! And the Miracles of the Colorado Marshall Fire”…
