WILLIAM E. PETERSON grew up in a small rural town in Upper Michigan where his wife began saving all of his business cards. He's multi-talented but bores easily. He was a flight instructor for both airplanes and helicopters, and worked as a corporate pilot for 18 years. Log home builder, taxidermist, and owner and operator of a trucking company are just a few of his former professions.

Peterson had written a couple of magazine articles prior to writing about his '67-'68 tour in Vietnam. After 15 years of passionate writing, the author released his first book: Missions of Fire and Mercy~Until Death Do Us Part. In 2011, Peterson won the Silver Medal Award for memoirs from the Military Writer's Society of America Awards Program.  After his well-received first book, he felt something was missing. He decided that even though he didn't know most grunts personally, it was his duty to honor them by writing Chopper Warriors ~ Kicking The Hornet's Nest.

When he's not writing, Peterson works as a home inspector and resides in Piney Flats, Tennessee with his wonderful wife, Cindi.

He is a member of The National Purple Heart Hall of Fame.
