Steve Coleman

Stephen B. Coleman, Jr. (Steve) earned a Bachelor of Arts in history from Duke University and a Master of Arts in English from University of Alabama. Father of three sons, his professions have included naval officer, English teacher, coach, camp counselor, small business operator, and commercial real estate broker. He was an instrument-rated Private Pilot, held a Master's license for sailing, has authored biographies and histories of local interest in Alabama, magazine articles and poems, and has served as president and board member of a number of civic organizations, including 39 years in Rotary. Recent awards for writing include Hackney Literary Award for "The Meanest Man in Pickens County." "Andre's Reboot: Striving to Save Humanity" was given Honorable Mention in 7th Annual Writers Digest eBook Awards and awarded a Silver Medal in Independent Publisher Book Awards 2020.

He holds to the belief that a man, though bound by the circumstances of his surroundings and the limits of his abilities and perception, has the God-given free will to act for the better good. Noted for his numerous and varied accomplishments, he brings to his writing a wealth of experience. Now seventy-eight years old, what distinguishes him most is that in his action-filled stories. He is a generous teacher, not an academe, but someone who shares his philosophy, knowledge, skills and love of people, life and adventure.
