Bill Buchanan, an electrical engineer formerly with Bell Laboratories and Raytheon, developed control systems and communication protocols for computer networks. In his past, as a captain in the U.S. Air Force Electronics Systems Division, he helped develop and test a side-looking prototype radar designed to penetrate foliage. Its design intent eliminated the need for agent orange. He received a masters degree in electrical engineering from Mississippi State University after working as a graduate assistant at NASA. He and his family lived in Hampstead, New Hampshire until moving closer to his parents. He lives in Mississippi now where he’s writing his next novel entitled Implosion.
