About the Author
Mr. Reiss was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1954. After graduating from Washington University in St. Louis with degrees in performing arts and political science, he moved to Copenhagen, Denmark to become a stage director at the Danish Royal Theater. Although he maintains his connections to the theater world, Mr. Reiss now works in marketing -- an equally nefarious occupation.
