Don Bishop

Don Bishop was born and grew up in Syracuse, New York.

Drafted into the United States Army right after the Tet Offensive in Vietnam in 1968, he served with the 1st Air Cavalry Division in South Vietnam from December 1968 to December 1969.

Since graduating from Business School in 1972, Don has worked in the retail filed for most of his working career.

He was inspired to write "Letters Home" after the death of his mother in 2000, after discovering that his mother had saved all of his letters.

Living in Northern New York since 1993, Don's family consists of his loving wife Patty and three children.

An avid golfer and Syracuse University sports fan, Don is currently working on a children's book and hopes to edit and publish an expanded version of "Letters Home" in the near future.
