About the Author
Not only is writing a natural outgrowth of Roger's formal education; it is also a product of his own life's experience. A Bachelor's Degree in English from St. Bonaventure University and graduate courses at the University of Rochester provide a solid foundation. But Roger's most meaningful "education" comes from teaching English literature and a thirty-year field leadership position with Ameriprise Financial. He calls these experiences his writer's "apprenticeship" citing the best preparation for writing novels islearning about people. Mark Twain's quote, "Never let your book learnin' interfere with your education", is his favorite.
