Author: Dan Brown
Bio: Dan Brown is amazed that the little kid who just wanted to fish and collect insects has cleaned butcher shops, built wheel lines for irrigation, built houses, graduated from college with a degree in wildlife biology, taught science and art, witnessed a coup in Paraguay, hitchhiked in southern Africa, walked across Spain, watched Himalayan Wrinkled Lipped Bats in Thailand, seen "Mona Lisa" and a saddle billed stork, gets excited about growing a good garden, is delighted that people like something he created enough to buy it, and lucky enough to do most of this with a wonderful wife and son.
