L.L.Pease the author was born just outside Boston MA in 1954. The proverbial adventurer, he has never retreated from an adventure or challenge. He joined the Air Force at 17 during the waning years of the Vietnam War, studied business and psychology after his dishcharge, attended training camp for the Boston Red Sox, worked as an extra in the movie A Man Apart, left the beaten path of America and traveled extensively throughout the country from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from Mexico to Canada. He's debated University professors to CEOs to janitors and bartenders, but he states the best experiences were from getting to mingle with the diverse cultures of this country and learn how all the other sides live. These experiences are the catalysts for much of his writing. In the midst of all his adventure he fathered a son and four beautiful daughters of whom he never tires of bragging about. He also has 10 grandchildren, seven stepchildren and eleven step grandchildren.
