Born in Los Angeles in the midst of the Reagan Administration, Eric Millman has spent the greater part of his adult years on the move. With stints in Australia, Thailand, and Italy -- and a sufficient number of countries in between -- he has seen a lot both in and out of a school bus, with far more ahead. Beyond travel literature, Eric has worked as a screenwriter for several years, has written extensively on Italian cinema, and once fronted a San Francisco-based, nuevo-vaudeville band called Baby Canon, for whom he played banjo and ukulele. A graduate of the University of New Orleans' Creative Writing Workshop, he is currently at work on a children's book based on the Great Moon Hoax of 1835.
