David J. Gluck was born in Sacramento, Ca. As a youth his family moved to Iowa where he has lived most of his life since. David entered the Army after High School and spent his tour in Dexheim, Germany during the time the Berlin Wall was crumbling and Europe was changing. After he returned home to the U.S., he worked as a pressman for a smalltown newspaper before pursuing an over-the-road truck driving career. During his career driving he has visited each of the Continental 48 States and continues to do so, as currently, David is still driving and writing poetry. "Life's Pages: A Book of Poetry; People, Places, and Things" is his first volume of poetry. His second one is due out near the end of 2009.
